Hi Guys,

Here are a couple of shots of the old Hasagawa G6 kit in 1/32, in Hartmann's livery. The kit's been in my stash for ages, and I decided it would be a good idea to build something I already had to hand instead of buying yet another kit.

Additions include the Master Details upgrade set (resin and white metal), for corrected spinner and blades, undercarriage and bays, external fuel tank and a few other bits.

I used Radu Brinzan's belts. If you haven't used these sets, I would describe them as similar in their construction sequence to Eduard sets, but the belts themselves are a tinted paper, looped through photoetch buckles. This gives them a delicate, natural appearance compared to coloured photoetch belt pieces, which can appear a little coarse, in my view.

Happy modelling!
