ForestFan Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Hi, here's my latest, done as a relaxing build over the hols to take my mind off certain crap that's going on in my life at present. No doubt there are a few missing aerials/intakes but it looks like a JP to me!Kit: AirfixAccessories: Pavla ej seats plus some scratch built aerialsPaint: GunzeWeathering: Flory washDecals: Xtradecal - 79(R) Sqn TWU 1984 (I think that the camo should wrap around below the wings, though Xtradecals crappy instructions don't show thisThanks for looking Untitled by bryn robinson, on Flickr Untitled by bryn robinson, on Flickr Untitled by bryn robinson, on Flickr Untitled by bryn robinson, on Flickr Untitled by bryn robinson, on Flickr Untitled by bryn robinson, on Flickr 45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul J Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Very smart. I did one in the camo scheme a long time ago based on the original Airfix kit with the leading edge widget things removed and some generic decals. I will do pics some time soonish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice model, at least one of mine will be in that scheme 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Awesome build! Saw a build article in Model World Magazine recently and this looks like a nice kit. Your camouflaged version is a true credit to your abilities. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cngaero Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Lovely looking Jet Provost. I've always liked this scheme although to my eyes, the J P always looked a wee bit uncomfortable being dressed up for war. Nevertheless, you've done a great job with this one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

binbrook87 Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Very nice indeed! And i think your camo is spot on as I'm pretty sure all the TWU JPs didn't receive the wraparound scheme. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Fleming Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 The wrap round we are talking about is the leading edge one. None carried an overall wrap round scheme. It's not well known that there were two different camouflage patterns used by the TWU JP4s - the one that FF has done on XR679 (also used by XS219, both painted in that as replacements in1982) and the one shown in the photo (XP547, XP564, XS178). XR679 was unique as it was repainted into the 'original' scheme in 85 (possibly at the same time as XS178 was painted, it had flown in red/white since 1979). Possibly too much detail, but i got confused looking at XR679 in apparently differing schemes and did some research! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
