SaintsPhil Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Good Morning BMers, Firstly thanks to all who helped out in the WIP thread: http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=234925644&st=0 This is my attempt at Hasegawa's kit of the AV-8B Plus version of the second generation Harrier. A nice kit, with a few fit issues (see the WIP!). Here's the all important pics: Comments and criticisms welcome!

phildagreek Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Nice work! I was on HMS Active in 87/88 when the Italian carrier was commissioned, they can throw those Harriers around. Good effort. [sigh] do you remember when we had Harriers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintsPhil Posted December 5, 2012 Author Share Posted December 5, 2012 Lovely work as ever - I will use your WIP as a reference as I have the same kit ear-marked for next year Thanks all for the kind comments, Andy I assume that's reference for how not to end up with a massive gap between intakes and body.... Incidently I found a front on shot of the FOD covers, after I'd made mine, which shows more detail if anyone's interested! http://img1.pictaero.com/2010/07/29/s/93749.jpg Looks like they should have a rigid intake blank under the tarp cover.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
