Fantastic work Dan, the finish on 'er is flawless. I believe this is the first HB Foxhound I have seen built. While yours looks absolutely fantastic, your feedback about building this kit has reinforced my decision to go AMK.

Anyway, great job on this one!

Beautiful paint job, in particular I like the mottled effect of the grey but especially the metal work, those missile look awesome, as does exhaust. Well done, something to be proud of

@Michael - I have only heard good things about the AMK kit. wish I had build that one. The only thing that was nagging to some people are the plastic landing gear, but I think I can live with that fact.

Thanks @Scott. funny thing about those weapons and missiles - it took more than 50% of all the plastic in the box. There were really not much to assemble aside from the cockpit and landing gear LOLOL.

Album info

If you like gigantic size aircraft kits in 1/48 scale with twin seater and twin burner cans. (and you don't mind about the horrible fuselage and intake trunk joints) then this is a kit for you! Seriously, the misalignment on the intake trunks joints are HUGE and a REAL MOJO-KILLER. This kit is MASSIVE in 1/48 scale. I have a small work bench so every time I move this mammoth around, I would almost literally bump parts of it onto something.
