These were taken under studio conditions by a modeller I hired to assemble this Academy 1/32 F-18D. I didn't want it to be in the usual F-18 ghost grey scheme and wanted something different.

There are several Agressor schemes to choose from ranging from F-18, F-5, F-14 or F-16...after lengthy review and discussion with the modeller, I chose an F-5 Aggressor scheme because of the color combination and wing's shape.

Given that Academy's Viking decal looks really good, I used it instead of the actual F-18 Agressors decal such as Fighting Omars, etc.


The modeller has so many projects in his hand that there is a 8-month waiting list to get this model finally started. From assembly to painting, it took 3 months. In all, it took 11months before I get to see the end product.
