I'm somewhat ambivalent about it.
When I first opened it, I thought "is it much different?" then compared it to the normal scheme. I tend to like contrasting schemes, but I think the pattern on this one ruins the Hawk's lines a bit. But then, I guess that's the whole point of camouflage!

This is SQNLDR Steve Smith's aircraft and kind of suits the weather conditions we are having these days, heavy dark clouds and rain. It's about time they repainted this airframe, it was looking pretty rough around the edges.

Same opinion: too much contrast between the two colours...

Did anybody get around to repainting this for Nick's Hawk.

I tink the rudder WAS repainted to show off the Squadron leaders colours .Great classy looking paint job !!
