On my monitor the rudder has the exact same shade as the upper wings - perhaps it could even be a replacement part..?
Cheers,
Andre
Looks like a replacement DSG rudder IMHO.

It's the same dark green as used in the standard camo scheme.
That East Fortune Lightning doesn't help again as it is a bit of an odd shade.
Is it not a different shade of green? I built one a few years ago and all the references suggested a different colour, think I done mine in Tamiya Nato Green which seemed a spot on match.

Very nice, shiny! Did you use the kit decals for the canopy det cord or are they painted?

Finished my 1/48 Buccaneer in time for the Buccaneer group build ending today.

I’m correct in thinking we have until 23:59 hours (BST) on 16/08/20 to post completed builds? I’m finished but was waiting until later today to get photos!
Cancel just seen the text in the gallery, it is indeed 23:59 hours, phew!

Looking good Werner, did you mix that colour up yourself?, it's a good match.

Only a few things left to do and it will be done.
Main wheels bays done and ready for the gear.
And pylons ready to be attached.

Cracking job. Is this a Revell reboxing of a Hasegawa kit or is it Revells own?

Getting some weathering done, sprayed some heavily thinned rubber black down either side of the rear fuselage for exhaust staining and added some streaks using pastels, not done yet but getting there.
I'm away with work mon - fri at the minute, so not getting much done, should make the finish line next weekend though.

There's a Revell advertisement in the August issue of Model Airplane International showing the GR.4 farewell boxing.
Noticed that too, due the 31 August I believe.
Hoping it's going to result in some new decal sheets of up to date schemes but nothing yet.

I've built the 1/48 ICM PD and RBT versions great kits and great value for money. Revell also reboxed the RBT kit but beware as I think the also released a rebox (possibly Italeri) 1/48 Mig-25PD years ago which is not the same kit.
-
A few more bits done, leading edges of the wings/tailplane done in Ak Xtreme Metals Aluminium, also got some of the sensors painted up and masking removed from canopy. Cant see it in these photos but I've done a wee bit of surgery on the IFR probe as the tip was going to be pointing downwards rather than horizontal.

They definitely flew in this configuration for a good few missions.....

Just caught up with all this, stunning build! How did you get on adding the front canopy after painting? Mine didnt fit well at all!
-
Agree with above, prior to this it was as follows-
Port outer - Aim-9L Sidewinder
Port inner - Pave Spike pod
Starboard inner - Slipper tank
Starboard outer - ECM pod.

Trying to confirm if the large fibreglass panel on the bottom of the rear fuselage (behind the bomb bay) was still present on the grey coloured airframes or if it was painted over?
-
Decals done, using about 3 different sheets, still lacking a bit of stencil detail. The Xtradecal History of 12 Sqn sheet is not one of there best, the roundels are well oversized. Also got a matt coat done. Working on the landing gear and NMF on the leading edges next.

Like the paint work, and you see the difference between the two colours. I did not know how that looked before now.
It's a bit of a strange demarcation line with the bomb bay not being Camo Grey, every decal manufacturer and colour profile I've looked at skips the underside as if there not really sure so just avoid it!
Managed to get there with photos although the underside of the tail planes are never shown or mentioned so wasnt sure about them, ended up doing them Camo grey as well.

What Werner says, although the centre line 1000ld’er was also carried on many CAP missions, the aircraft would take off and fling it towards Stanley airfield to harass the enemy and keep them on their toes before heading off on CAP.
If your looking to portray an aircraft actually involved in the conflict then the EDSG over white was never worn with the white being painted over on the journey south. I maybe picked you up wrong and this is what you mean by EDSG over white as in painted over white.
