Rizzo Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 My first completed build after a 20ish year break, and it's been great fun Lots of it has been new to me (never used to have any aftermarket bits at all), so it took me quite a while to get done. I'm already starting to build up a stash though, so I guess I'll have to speed up... It's the 1/48 Airfix kit, Flightpath set (which was awesome) and Neomega cockpit Build thread is here: http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=79573 39 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kev67 Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Very nice build, the Buccaneer is probably the only jet fighter I would want to make, but in a smaller scale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ingo Degenhardt Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 A great Buccaneer. I like it a lot. Well done! If the model wasn't such labour I would make another one in the same painting scheme (mine's in Desert pink) I. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rizzo Posted January 26, 2012 Author Share Posted January 26, 2012 Thanks for the comments That is absolutly beautiful my friend. The attention to detail is spectacular.Note to self...........I MUST GET A BUCCANEER.........(or two) Very well done on that one mate shes a beaut........so whats next??? I have a Sea Vixen in progress too... had a few airbrush related disasters though, so it's still at the primer stage. And I've just started a Dynavector Gannet. I nearly chickened out and went for a Classic Airframes version, until I saw the prices they were going for. And besides, I really want to make a Scimitar soon, so this will be much needed practice! This was a triumph!I'm making a note here - huge success! You just keep on trying till you run out of cake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
