Hi everyone here is the link to the Red Arrows BAE Hawk video: ua-cam.com/video/W6SImdSMPyM/v-deo.html Unfortunately, all the include Humbrol paint pots in this starter set were bone dry. So instead, I used my stock pile of Vallejo Acrylic model paints as a replacement. Even with this minor setback, I was still able to make a nice model out of the kit. In the meantime, please make sure to check out the second part of the video following the link above. Until next time good luck with all your ongoing scale modelling projects. And as always thank you for both watching this video. And the Red Arrows Hawk build video too.
That is good news to hear that Humbrol/Airfix have fixed the paint problem. For a scale modeller like me with a healthy paint supply it was not too much of an issue. I cannot even imagine how frustrating for a beginner it would be to find dried paint in the starter set. Anyway, thank you Matt. I am glad you loved seeing my take on this kit. And hopefully the next starter set I tackle ,will not have dried paint in the box.
Airfix should do a lot more to fix the paint problem,its putting a lot of new people off our wonderful hobby.Cmon Airfix put it right.Well tidy build btw.
Hopefully the paint problem will be fixed by Humbrol/Airfix. Minus the paint issues I had with this kit. It is always a joy to make an Airfix model of the Supermarine Spitfire. Thanks for watching and liking the model, Kenneth.

Nice work again nephew. Great job.
Thanks Uncle glad you loved it!
Ah yes, the old "new" style pots supposedly have been redesigned to prevent the drying problem. Despite this, I think you did a great job!
