1/48 Roden JOV-1A Mohawk
Posted: Sun Jun 25, 2017 8:23 pm
Having been invited to get involved in an upcoming project, I am going to be building this 1/48 Mohawk, produced by Roden. It's going to be the JOV-1A attack variant. I've never built anything from Roden, so this will be a new experience for me.
The kit looks nicely moulded, and the surface detail seems a little soft, but I'm sure once I'm at the painting stage, that isn't going to be an issue. A nice touch is a small poster of the box, which I will get a frame for.
The aftermarket I've got for it is an Eduard mask set, Quickboost resin exhaust set, and a lovely True Details reason cockpit set (which looks like a build all on its own!).
I will also be using largely Hataka paints.
For reference I've picked up a couple of the Squadron Products books on the Mohawk.
