matt_w Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Here is my finished Revell Luftwaffe Tornado of Reconnaissance squadron 51 in its "Black Panther" scheme worn to the 2011 Tiger Meet. built out of the box other than the crew from my spares box and the stand, this is a great kit anyway with plenty of detail and minimal work needed to make it al fit together. Painted in Tamiya paints, the silver tiger stripes should have been a bit darker, but I'm not too worried as they stand out . I was a bit nervous with the decals as ive had some issues with revell in the past, but the colour is great and they are nice and thick. The decal sheet needs some studying before tacking them and it was fun figuring out the best order to build and paint this. It really stands out on the shelf and I may have to collect all the special scheme tornados CSC_0142 by matt wellington, on Flickr CSC_0143 by matt wellington, on Flickr CSC_0144 by matt wellington, on Flickr CSC_0145 by matt wellington, on Flickr CSC_0147 by matt wellington, on Flickr CSC_0146 by matt wellington, on Flickr CSC_0148 by matt wellington, on Flickr CSC_0149 by matt wellington, on Flickr Some prior to the stores being added. The only issue with this is you loose the movable pylons as they are added after the decals. Not so much of an issue as it was being displayed in flight at 67degrees so they are glued in place now.. 20180215_171338 by matt wellington, on Flickr 20180215_171506 by matt wellington, on Flickr 20180215_171440 by matt wellington, on Flickr 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phone Phixer Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Wow, that's a bright scheme. Great work on the decals. You can rely on the Germans to go all out on tiger meet paintwork. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt_w Posted February 18, 2018 Author Share Posted February 18, 2018 (edited) Thanks guys! The germans do a great job for tigermeet aircraft, I loved the cybertiger typhoon from a few years back. This one really stands out against the greys and camo of the rest of my collection! Would have been nice to see this one flying.
