F/A-18E Super Hornet by Scott Bregi
Brand: Hasegawa
 Scale: 1/72
Modeler: Scott Bregi
 AddOns: Eduard prepainted photo-etch set used in the cockpit.

 

The incorrectly depicted intake depressions were filled in and then correctly depicted with home made decals. These were made by cutting a stencil in the correct shape then black paint was sprayed thru a photo-etch mesh to replicate the small bleed air holes.

Note the landing gear hinges. These were carved into the kit landing gear using a #11 knife blade.
Model master and Alclad II paints were used. Yellow tail markings were masked off and sprayed instead of using the kit decals.
