gazza l Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Hello everyone, Just finished these two Harriers, oob apart from the pitot tube from Master and a Freightdog resin tail correction on the GR-3. Another couple of superb kits from Airfix, went together like a dream, no filler, refined panel lines and excellent decals only let down slightly by the GR-3's short tail but to be honest it's not that obvious. The GR-1 is painted in Xtracolors and the GR-3 in Tamiya, both finished with Alclad gloss and matt cotes respectively. As always comments welcomed, good or bad. Cheers, gazza l 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinky coffeeboat Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 (edited) A beautiful pair of Harriers. The first picture of the GR1 took me right back to my 'years gone by' and my first Airfix Harrier and that box art of the jet taking off vertically. That's why I've got a soft spot for the tin wing Harriers. What colour did you use for the nozzles?

gazza l Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 Thanks for your kind comments chaps. A beautiful pair of Harriers. The first picture of the GR1 took me right back to my 'years gone by' and my first Airfix Harrier and that box art of the jet taking off vertically. That's why I've got a soft spot for the tin wing Harriers.What colour did you use for the nozzles? Jeff I used Alclads for the nozzles, black base first, then steel, followed by a light coat of sepia, a black oil wash and finally sealed with a matt cote.
