A lot of added details went into Hobbycraft’s 1/72 scale F2H-3 Banshee courtesy of Greg. He added an Obscureco resin cockpit, ejection seat, and nose-wheel bay, corrected the nose gear leg, used a Squadron vacuum-formed canopy with a scratchbuilt internal frame, corrected the exhausts, and built up the wingtip tank mounts with styrene and filler. He painted with Model Master enamels using poster putty worms for a soft demarcation between the upper and lower camouflage colors. With the kit decals proving unusable, Greg pieced together the markings from his spares.
