Great job on the little things. Seat and panel are a beauty of a start.
Tail wheel housing and the front leg covers, great stuff your doing to them......
 
nice job!
I found some more inaccuracies to correct.
Picture 1 is the area of the lowerfuselagee behind the wing. It looked like it had a lot more detail then the kit.
After some searching I found Picture 2..
They are the doors for the two flares (behind pilot' seat)
On the H75 A1, 2, these doors opens towards the rear

Thanks Waroff, I never knew that.
Hunting around the internet today I finally found pictures of the actual aircraft I'll be depicting. They don't really help with the camo pattern much though. I've been working on drawings of the pattern based on some profiles with a lot of imagination for the top view as there is nothing depicting it that I could find. I'll post the drawing when I finish it and solve a problem with my scanner.

My vacation time is almost done, but I managed to complete the camo on the Hawk75 before it was over.
The first 4 pictures are a sequence of shots taken over several days showing the masking and painting of the camo, followed by a couple of shots of the finished paint. The last shot also shows the marked up sheets I used for a painting guide.
