Very nice, I like the base as well. Sandpaper, am I right? Looks very effective. 

Hi Goggsy,

 

The base is aactually a print.  It is a 1/48 NATO taxiway from Noys Minitures, which is available from Hannants (product code NM48004).  It measures 39.5cm x 28cm.

 

 Kind regards

Hi Chrish,

 

The kit was a joy to construct, with only the wing root needing some filling.  It was the adding the brass aftermarket products that took the time.  Additionally, the fitting of the new resin rear fuselage took some time.  However, the adding of these bits was self inflicted.

 

Kind regards

 

Andy

A while ago I stated that my father took some photos while working on the flight line at RAF Leeming, not long after 33 Squadron received the Javelin Mk7s.  XH838 F, the one in the photos of the model appears in two of the photos. So, just for the record here they are.  Many thanks Andy.
