shan Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 My revell kit had lots of missing details, so i managed to download a technical drawing and rescribe some panels on the underside. also , i hope you will be detailing the speed brakes and i totally recommend the SAC white metal wheels and its suppliment parts. I was building my model over a few years ( undergoing my Architectural Studies, getting married, buying my home...etc). I found that the wheels may have problems holding up the model, especially after loading it with the paragon JP233 anti runway bomb unit. best wishes shan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted May 9, 2012 Author Share Posted May 9, 2012 loads of great reference here..i was planning on the white metal gear. mind sharing were you got the technical drawing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shan Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 If you r are deciding to use the front landing gear from the kit, you may have to cut off quite a bit of the shaft connecting to the wheels. if you dont the nose will sit too high and your model will slope towards the back. I used the white metal landing gear and cut off about 1/2 of the shaft to get it sitting level. also, when the fusalage is fixed to the main body with wing root, you may find the nose drooping down slighly. you may have to put in a spacer for it to be level. please do load up some pics while you are working on the flightpath flaps and slats. I am very interested in viewing the parts being put together. I used the paragon set, which was resin, but i think the flightpath set would be much more interesting. best of luck with your progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted May 11, 2012 Author Share Posted May 11, 2012 Thanks shan, iv been looking at the drawings you sent me as well. well i only got a small amount of time in on the tornado today burners awaiting to see if they will get the flight path details...come on andy..

Logan Posted May 12, 2012 Author Share Posted May 12, 2012 well it seems like the burners wont get the great detail now, and it seems to late to buy a hole set..and the flaps and slats buy have all but halted due to no response from the seller when asked for pictures....I suppose its time to but the sac white metal gear and the eduard paint mask and wait. P.S. i know i cant make a looking for thread, but if any one has anything 1/32 tornado(resin,flightpath,spare laser senors, paveways ect) that iv mention im looking for please shoot me a pm or e-mail.

Logan Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 Thats some pretty neat pre shading, i will deff be going a similar route. andy was so kind to send me out a spare set of the mig eater decals and im just awaiting an e-mail from the seller of the flaps and slats when he gets back in town. Is a small hobby saw my best option for cutting out the sections on the wings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
