LSP_Kevin Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 This is a test shot of the HK Models Meteor Mk 4. I built the kit with preliminary instructions, test decals and no painting guide (build thread). I chose the included Argentinian scheme because the decals for the RAF options didn't seem quite right colour-wise. As it happens, the Argentinian roundels turned out to be too light. In any case, I thought it was quite a striking scheme! Anyway, enough babbling, on with the photos: More in the next post...

LSP_Kevin Posted January 19, 2014 Author Share Posted January 19, 2014 In the next photo, you can see why I've chosen not to highlight the surface detail with any panel line washes: So, that's it! A simple kit, but a very enjoyable build. The only real change I made to OOB is replacing the two blade aerials in the kit with a whip aerial as per profiles of this aircraft. I can only highly recommend this kit, so pick on up when you can! Thanks everyone for looking in.

tomprobert Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Really, really nice finish on what looks like a stunning kit. Completely agree with your thoughts on the lack of panel line wash being required too - I've found the same with the B-17 in the fact HK have got their surface detail just deep enough to be noticed, but any enhancement would over-do the effect. A really great build Kev; looks like another winner from HK. Tom wunwinglow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 excellent build Kev, looks very promising, gotta get me one of them for sure.
