An old Hawk kit brought
up to date by scratchbuilding the cockpit and ejection seats. The fuselage
was reshaped using the Squadron book as reference. The paint scheme was painted
with the numbers and letters coming from spares. Why build a Hawk kit,
you ask? Because at that time there wasn't a choice. This was done before the
Tamiya and Revell kits.

The last would RF-84F.
It
has a Heller nose and intake with a Monogram body and wings. Panel
lines has been scribed. The stencils are from Monogram with the numbers coming
from the spares box. The parrot on the nose, yellow ID stripes and
black and red walkways are painted on.
