Christer A Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Well, it seems that I finally managed to finish something... After what seems like an absolute age I mustered up the strength to finish it and as always there are a million things to do in the end. Here is the rather portly looking Mk XII in all its glory: Painted with Tamiya, weathered with some oil, and a few washes from MIG.

Col. Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Turned out grand in the end Did your winterised Harrier ever make it back out of the box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The winterised Harrier you say? I looked at it last week actually. It got all stencils on now, but no snow distemper. Maybe I should give it a spin with förhandling it? I got an extra couple of Harriers that I'm almost itching to start so it's no big deal if I screw up... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again I am a massively biased Harrier fan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artie Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Maybe one of the most beautiful Spitfire variants....the clipped wingtips, mated to that "hot rod" bulged nose, makes me think about a fast, very fast machine.... Congrats.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilZR Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Really nice, well finished, like the full Sutton harness. Only suggestion would be to replace the exhausts with Ultracast resin ones. This is such a lovely kit, I purchased another after completing one. If only Airfix had produced an Mk ix to this standard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonT Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I found it a great kit and bought another too. Yours looks great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
