HI All, Its my first real W.I.P thread on here, some fantastic builds which really makes me want to make a good job on this kit! The kit! The New release 1/48 Tornado IDS boxing, however I wish to make an RAF Tornado GR4. Nice to see in the boxing its self,there is not only a LRMTS in kit, but also a FLIR and Sky Shadow ECM pod ! Sadly, not RAF decals as a German IDS boxed only kit. I want to make a standard RAF Squadron aircraft, with the aircraft modeled in flight, a shame with all the parts to do flaps down etc but i'll do that on the next GR4 build I have 2x RAF Aircrew figures, seated, by P J Productions, plus I have sent off for a Litening III Pod from freightdog models. I do need to get the best decals for a RAF Tornado GR4, I know the Model Alliance decals are good, but not sure which would be best for me. Below, this is something I would like to replicate. Loadout of 2x 1500 External Tanks, 1x BOZ 107 (Starboard), 1x Sky Shadow (Port), 1x RAIDS (Port), 1x Practice ASRAAM which they carry on Right shoulder Pylon, adn a Litening III TGP under fuselage. I was thinking to do a all over mdeium sea grey jet, or maybe do EB-Q or EB-B, new looking 41 ® Sqn aicraft with same load. However, On with the the model itself! Only have made a bit of progress due to my work shifts, but I have made up the pilots, started the cockpit and intake section the cockpit sits on, plus could not resist making some of the loadout photo 4 by lowlevelRAF, on Flickr photo 1 (1) by lowlevelRAF, on Flickr photo 3 by lowlevelRAF, on Flickr Then had a issue with a pilot while trying to cut off the transport material! photo 2 (1) by lowlevelRAF, on Flickr Any help would be great or suggests One thing I would like, what washed would people recommend and how do they work! As I would love to get the panel lines out more but I've never tried or known how to go about it All the best, Matt
