Hi everyone and here's my Tornado F3 built for the 'Tornado Warning' Group Build. The short build thread is here but to recap: Kit: Tamiya (ex Italeri) Tornado F3 Scale: 1/72 Build: Out of box with tape for seatbelts Paints: Halfords plastic primer, Revell acrylics airbrushed, Klear, Flory Models Wash, 4B pencil Decals: XTRADECAL Tornado F.3 229 OCU/65 Sqn "Red Zebra display" scheme Extras: some panel lines rescribed. Notes: This aircraft ZE809 was lost in a non-fatal crash in June 1994 while flying with 111 Squadron. A seal around a high pressure shaft failed leading to an engine explosion and fire. Really enjoyed this one and very happy how the decals turned out - but a little touch up with red paint was needed where they cracked. Tamiya_Tornado_F3_1 (4) by Dermot Moriarty, on Flickr As the Tornado scheme commemorated 50 years since the Battle of Britain, thought I should pose it with a Spitfire from that time - this is an Airfix Mk1a from 602 Squadron, July 1940. Thanks for looking, stay safe and happy modelling. Dermot
