    Not updated this one for a while.. Construction all but complete ready for paint now. I plan to have her looking like she has been abandoned as in the header photo, but maybe a day or so later, so a little picked over.. The “Inside the Armour” turret base is wider than the kit part, so I had to modify the area’s around the turret ring, basically, move everything out my a couple of millimeters, fits now though!! Just a bit of masking off the interior so should get some undercoat on this afternoon

    This is the Fly model Jet Provost T.5/T.5A kit built OOB, with the exception of the Eduard Seatbelts and nose wheel leg, as a T.5A of 6 Flying Training School where it was used during the back end of 80’s and early 90’s, predominantly, for navigational training. All went together like a dream apart from the nose wheel leg that was next to useless, two tiny parts that really had no chance of survival, snapping almost as soon as was painted, I ended up making a replacement our of brass tubing. This is one where some white metal replacements would great…

    This has been a “while I’m away” build.. Due to its size, I could work on this while being away from home with work. It’s the great little Sweet 1/144 Wildcat VI. I added the Brengun seat and harness, otherwise OOB. I have to say, even though the box top is a bit garish and you get a load of little cats as aircrew, the fit of this kit is exceptional, absolutely no filler and only a smidge of sanding! And to give it scale!

    Very nice Dan The pre-shade photo could have passed off as a winter camo scheme...!

    Only two months! that's quick! I've been watching this one develop, I have to say I think the finished product is superb! Great detail all round, and some, technically, difficult modelling to achieve (such as the water) has all lead to a really great little diorama. Great job!

    I’m calling this one finished.. Built as part of the Harrier Single Type Group Build II, this is a BAe Sea Harrier FRS.1 XZ453 of 899 NAS. This aircraft was transferred to 801 NAS for the Falklands conflict and ultimately crashed into the sea following a collision with another Harrier, sadly, both pilots lost their lives The kit is the old Airfix kit, lots of help from aftermarket "stuff" Build thread is here:

    That is an amazing piece of work! Brilliant!

    Good shout on the gearbox colour! Gearbox now painted green (even though it looks darker in the photo, oil wash is still wet!) and installed along with the (I think) fuel tanks. Shame these will be hidden when the engine and radiators are installed! Engine assembled as well..

    Nice work so far... Keep it up..

    A quick update... Engine and gear box painted... I decided against puke green and silver as I believe this was the post war colour scheme so I went for black and white with some weathering...
  21. OzH
    Here's my latest efforts.. Detail on.. And some of those loose bits.. Just a few bits to do on the undercarriage doors and it'll be ready for paint...

    Really cool! unless I'd seen the build thread though, I wouldn't have appreciated just how much work had gone into that single section! Just out of interest, how many of these spans do you get in the kit? Great work, keep it coming... Just re-read your first post.. that'll be three spans!!

    Yet another great model there Tony.. Fantastic!
