"Italeri 1/48, resin, PE details, some srcatch"
Hi
below you will find some recent photos of my Tornado F3 from 43(F) squadron.
I used quite some AM products, not all of them really made for this kit but with some work i could make them fit
namely:
Eduard interior set for the cockpit
Paragon Seats
Paragosn flap set
Paragon wheels
Decals are from now regrettably defunct Aviation Workshop/ Model Alliance
I tried my skills on integrating Aires wheel bay for the Hobbyboss kit (no big hassle)
and the definitely better detailed landing gear from SAC that perfectly fits the aires set.
the icing on the cake where Aires new nozzles that required some surgery to the Italeri fuselage but compensate with exquisite detail.
now some photos:
Now I am looking forward to your comments/ critics
Thanks everybody on britmodeler, a lot of inspiration and detail photos, links etc. were used!
Without this great reference compendium this project would not have been so much fun!!!
