hpetiers Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 it took me around one year, then could not get enough of it so decided to add a piece of carrier deck, but in the end completed it last week. please find below my interpretation of Revells F/A-18E with the best of my modeling skills and patience. Added aftermarket ejection seat, pilot, cockpit interior, wheels and decals and did quite some adjustments on the inner structure to make all parts fit. the Maverick missile came from Academy. The build thread can be found in the works in progress section. Thank for looking! Daniel Leduc, davral64, Seversky and 28 others 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stokey Pete Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Excellent display there. Did the kit come with option to unload the gear or did you do that yourself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrish Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 That was a trip worth taking! Glad to have seen this in progress...it did scare me away from trying the Revell kit but I’ve got a few Academy hornets and will see what magic you work with the F...... great job! Well done!

hpetiers Posted April 23, 2020 Author Share Posted April 23, 2020 indeed Shawn, a beast it was in behaviour and still is in size! thanks for your support Stokey Pete and chrish. In the bombs I put 1 steel wire stubs that can be pushed into holes in the pylons. For that price you cannot expect any Tamiya-like features!
