1/48 F/A-18 Hornet - Blue Angel 3




Built in Summer 2000, this was my first use of acrylic paint (Testor's Model Master Acryl) and Future floor wax for the gloss coat. I chose markings for Blue Angel #3 in honor of LCDR Keiron O'Connor and LT Kevin Colling, who perished while flying with the Blues on 28 October, 1999, when I was still living in Pensacola.

Kit: Monogram
Scale: 1/48
Markings: US Navy Flight Demonstration Squadron (Blue Angels)
Date: Summer 2000
Aftermarket: None
