What paint did you use for the blue? Im doing a non-whiff hornet, and need the proper colours.

Not sure what color Eddie's using, but Testor's does make a color in its Model Master range called "Blue Angel Blue."

Because I live out in the middle of nowhere, I use what I can get :P . This the Walmart color royal blue in a spray can. I like it because it is a bit darker than the MM B.A. blue. :)

Beautiful!  I like it. :cheers:

However I cannot in good conscience call this a "What-If?".  It is more of a "Will be".  Someone seems to have been peering into a crystal ball or at least renting a Time Machine.   B)

Why, perhaps blue angels will get UAVs next  :P
Would look nice to see a formation of predators!

A photo of the last Transfers to go on. Next, I'll be adding the last bits and bobs and finally, the high gloss coat. B)

There's an airshow in town this weekend and the Blue Angels will be there. One of their F-18s did low passes over my office and the nearby airport today. I saw it very close and Mr Miller, it looks almost exactly like your build! Well, at least to this inter-war, Golden-Age officianado.

Aboslutely Blue-Ribbon work Eddie!
