1/48 Italeri Tornado GR1 Gulf War


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

Well here's my first attempt at uploading to Britmodeller, so here goes...

 

After a lay off from modelling for over a decade, in Arnies famous words..."I'm back"👍

 

I started this years ago, and so I thought I'd finish some dust covered boxes...so here's Italeri's Tornado. To be frank, it's nearly gone in the bin so many times, it is awful. I enjoyed doing the Airfix Buc more😜  

 

It it has the fab NeOmega cockpit, Brassin GBU-10's and the Master pitot tube. It's painted in a mix of Aeromaster and Vallejo, and the decals are Printscale.

Hello,Si - Welcome back to the world of Fine Fettling and the Forum.What a superb comeback too! This 'Tornado' really looks the part and I love the quality and detail of the painting and finishing work.The fact she works hard for her living is well represented here and I think the intake covers look spot on. Great work on a great subject.😉👍 All the best,Paul.

Hello Newbie,

Job well done.

Well used and heavily weathered. If I am right, the Buccaneer was, at this stage, still needed for guidance of the smart bombs to target.

Regards,    Orion / The Netherlands.
