    If the gun port for the port side is included then it should be. Add the gun port and dont add the FLIR sensor. The cockpit is a GR1 cockpit other than a round moving map display in the front.

    I personally think it seems a bit on the expensive side, I may yet keep a hold of my kinetic example.

    Thanks for all the comments. Finally another update. I've got a few paint jobs done like some of the metal work and black areas. The grey camo area has also had a matt coat today and got the flaps and slats on. The under wing stores are ready, (Boz pod not quite done yet).

    Well that’s something different! Fabulous work.

    So got everything glossed up (Mr Color GX Super Clear) and pretty much all the decals done. Decided not to bother with the walkway markings on top of the fuselage and wings as they were invisible in the grey, pretty much like the real thing!

    Thanks guys. Got some weathering done, picked out some panels from looking at photos that are various shades of grey. Also applied a grey wash on the matt surface to darken it and give it some dirt!

    Very impressive, wow! Colours look spot on.

    Pretty pleased with the results, a few bits of tidy up required but happy with it.

    Started to get the Signal Blue on, Hataka again. The tail section and main canopy is straight forward.

    Got the radome painted then the main camo colour, Hataka's Medium Sea Grey. I then had to decide how best to spray the tail colours, went for the red first and relevant area masked off. Then on to spraying Hatakas Signal Red. The colour call out in the Xtradecal sheet calls for Cherry Red, Hataka do both colours and there’s a subtle difference between the shades, Signal Red looked the closer match so I went with that. Once on it looked slightly too dark so I lightened it with a touch of Tamyia Flat Red. Looks good and I’m happy how it went on, hopefully get the blue surround on tomorrow.

    Thanks, I noticed that the Tornado SIG state it’s DSG but I think that looks way too dark, I ended up using a mix Tamyia Sky Grey and DSG. I’ll see how it looks once the MSG is on.

    Greek F-4E’s are slatted as the original delivery start with the serial 72-01500. The later aircraft transferred from the Missouri ANG were made prior to the change but look to have been retrofitted with the slatted wing. I’m sure someone else will be able to confirm seeing as I only found out the difference 5 minutes ago!

    Brilliant illustration there, thanks for that!

    Does anyone have a decent colour match for the GR4 radome grey? Preferably in Gunze, Tamyia or Hataka. Everything I've looked at is either going to be too light or too dark compared to the main camo colour of MSG.

    Thanks Hopkp and Gene, so they did have a leading edge 'flap' but not slats? If that's the case, that's where I'm getting confused as I've seen photos of them with the leading edge dropping. I thought the 'hard wing' literally meant the leading edge was a fixed part of the main wing.
  16. Muzz
    Can anyone clarify something, the images of the new release F-4EJ Kai seem to suggest the kit has a hard wing but the real aircraft has slatted wings or have I got this wrong?

    Eduard mask applied and ready for a primer coat, I knew there would be some remedial work still to do afterwards...... Used Alclads Grey primer/micro filler as usual but they seem to have changed the formula, it's now a lot lighter in colour than the previous grey. I do like the new colour but not sure if the formula is as good, it might just be the lighter colour isn't giving you as much coverage.

    Tried to do the pre order this morning but the form you need to fill in just isn’t geared for English language and the European market, ended up giving in.

    It would now be great if someone (Eduard) made the following resin products in 1/32 and 1/48 scale...... TIRRS blister CAS sensors CBLS 200 TARDIS Display

    It's my 4th build, done two GR1's and a failed GR4 build, so it's not my first rodeo! Still doesnt make it straight forward. Front canopy on and seams cleaned up.
  21. Muzz
    Thanks, I joined them to the top part of the fuselage before joining the fuselage parts together, it seemed to work out well, first time I've done it that way.
  22. Muzz
    Got the wing gloves fitted, the 'fin' on and radome (with weight). Radome join has been filled and blended in and I've also been working on a few other troublesome joins around the intakes etc.
  23. Muzz
    Think I've held off long enough, going to have to order it now! Like the decal options, glad to see theres some standard squadron jets.
  24. Muzz
    Think maybe the ATFLIR and Sniper do different jobs, remember the legacy F/A-18’s always used to carry two pods on the shoulder stations as did the F-15E Strike Eagle and sometimes F-16. Don’t recall seeing it that often now right enough. No numbers mentioned for the Litening pod, maybe just looking for a bit of resilience.

    Believe it or not I searched again and bingo perfect photos........... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Aircraft-Tornado-Left-Hand-I-B-Alarm-Stub-Pylon-Port-Side-1560-99-866-4817/392546741883?hash=item5b659bee7b:g:HiQAAOSwu3db0a~D
