    Amazing nostalgia - I had the Novo (Frog) one, made for me by my dad and elder brother ( maybe 1977?). This looks like a much better, more detailed model than the old ones. Looks like a spaceship in silver…..

    Imposing looking beast! Well done. Maybe slightly too matt? Could be just the lighting….

    A couple of posters think this is overdone. I agree that sometimes people do go too far, but if you look at photos some of the C and D models in Vietnam were actually this bad! Maybe poor paint prep/ application in theatre? Great result - well done!

    Paint wear on the port side is amazing! Well done.

    I don’t think that I’ve ever seen a mk VIII before with clipped wing - very unusual and very nice!

    Hideous in a good way! I love it!

    Love this - it really pops out! What’s the story with the wing roundels?
  8. ian1485
    I like where the wheels have sprayed mud on the wings! Very nice

    That looks lovely! I do like 2 seater f16s, like 2 seater harriers, I just think that they look more balanced (controversial!)

    I’ve just read this. https://www.britishmilitaryhistory.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/sites/124/2020/05/Beaufort-W6530-HOLLELY-V2_2.pdf Sad story. lovely models. I can just imagine them lumbering into the sky on those underpowered engines.

    Brill! The contrast between colours ( not very much) looks just right.

    Love the glossy blue paintwork! The kit is surprisingly accurate given its age.

    Love the chipping, especially around the tail area!

    Nice! Love the exhaust stains and fuel stains from filling up the drop tanks. Just like in photographs of the real thing.
