Paul Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 (edited) I'm looking forward to building this one. It'll be XV738 in anniversary markings. I believe that XV738 was the first production Harrier and that the special markings were designed by Enzo Matrix, Britmodeller The kit The decals for the tail markings and a Pavla resin exhaust/intake set Edited April 16, 2011 by Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted July 31, 2011 Author Share Posted July 31, 2011 Gosh I've left this a bit late to make a start! I've also had a bit of a change of heart with the markings as I found an old Modeldecal set with the same aircraft testing out schemes for the Harrier II as here I started with the back end, just for a change Then the pointy end Then both together And I've got this far today I've got a clear weekend next weekend, so I'm aiming to get the main painting done then.

Harry Lime Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 It's an absolute gem of a kit isn't it? Those Pavla add ons do it justice. Looks like you've got a nice, clean build going on there. And no, you've not left it too late, I only started my entry a couple of weeks back! Mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted September 9, 2011 Author Share Posted September 9, 2011 I haven't had much time to post updates, but I have been carrying on with the build. Hopefully it should be completed tomorrow, as usual just in the nick of time! To my eyes the GR3 looks very attractive in the modern looking paint scheme that was being trialed for the Harrier 2.

Harry Lime Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Good looking build of a good model. I've toyed with the idea of doing both of these GR3's and keep thinking that I'll have enough Grey or Green schemed Harriers, but having seen this one built up I think I might just have to take the plunge and do them!
