1/200 E-2 Hawkeye

Got started on this design yesterday and am already pleased with how the first prototype has taken shape. A few things to rework and of course some details to add but i think it looks enough like a hawkeye that i can show it off

Thank you both for your interest

I reworked the parts i wasnt happy with, added panel lines and more details. I think the model is just about ready to color and release (still a couple minor tweaks). Here is the second build—the radar dish came out a bit warped due to building error. Also the model is a very chronic tail-sitter!

And if you can motorize the radome to spin on your model you can use it to hypnotize friends.

First two releases--enjoy

I'm going to start building them myself and will post my completed build. Definitely not a ton of exciting recolors, but I do plan to do a Tiger Meet livery and some foreign hawkeyes before I complete this project

Thanks PE. The Hawkeye with that prominent radome will make an welcome addition to the built models shelf.
