Italeri 1:12 F-104G Cockpit. Painted with Revell Aqua, Testors and some Tamiya paints. Most of the colors were mixed up to match the colors on the box. It might not be accurate (actually, I'm pretty sure that it's just plain wrong color-wise :P), but it sure looks good to my eye and I'm very happy with it.

Well, here's my build for this GB.

Built from the Revell 1/32 BAe Hawk T.1a "Red Arrows" kit, this represents (badly) XX184, better known as the 19 Sqn. SpitHawk

Build thread is here

Sorry about the standard of the pictures (and the standard of the model!), the model was too big to

photograph on my desk as usual.

This has been a strange build for me, the Revell Hawk is a nice kit, and goes together well, but my build has been

one problem after another, the cockpit side consoles, the airbrake, the nosewheel bay, the landing gear (as I type this, the

left main gear has just broken and collapsed!), priming the RED plastic, Klear just pooling on the surface, to tell the truth,

I'm glad to see the back of it . . . The XtraDecal Spithawk and ETPS sheet is good too!
