Hawker Hunter F. Mk 6 in onethirtytooth

[chrispisme]

So this went together like it was on a mission...having taken a day or two off after finishing the Hudson (and to clean up all the sanding dust and scrap plastic) I started gluing this little beauty together. I added some aftermarket to it but ended up using almost all kit ingredients. This was another of the kits from the stash of the fellow who gave me the Hudson (building all "H" themed models now I guess)
I didn't have time to take pictures of the W.I.P. because the model built itself using my hands and some paints.
I figure about 2 weeks from start to finish?

Thanks for looking

I always think the hunter is the classic school boys idea of a jet fighter , should really have been the new Spitfire. lovely build chris..

'Oo doosn't like the loovly lines of the 'Awker 'Unter! Jolly Good!
American Jets of the same era do not inspire the same kind of romance as this British fighter. American kids waited for the Grumman Panther or Cougar, the Delta Dart as well, to experience eye-pleasing aircraft design. Most of our '50's jet fighters look like angular killing machines.
Well, they are.
Mostly.
Depending on the weather.
Sometimes?

You must be deaf, dumb and blind.
For if it feels one drop of rain,
You'll have wreckage, NOT a plane!"
