Harrypotter 33 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 (edited) Hi Guys,First post here from a long time lurker.I built this Viper as a gift for my friends 40th, as I'm basically a wargamer (boo hiss etc.) it was my first time building something 'big' for many years.As a result of being rusty the thing fought me all the way, but I'm happy with the end result.It's personalised to him (pilots name and d.o.b. for the hull registry).

SMD70 140 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 That is one fantastic looking MkII Viper you have there. Fantastic bit of weathering you have there… may have study this a bit more when I retrieve mine from the shelf of "rest"... Link to post Share on other sites
Harrypotter 33 Posted June 5, 2014 Author Share Posted June 5, 2014 Cheers, getting it to the weathering stage was not a pleasant experience. The actually weathering itself was a breeze by comparison. Link to post Share on other sites
Breaker 1,122 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Great detail with the tail fin number! I really like these kits, keep meaning to get another. Link to post Share on other sites

The bit you probably can't see in the pics is the pilots name is his, and his callsign is his favourite comic book character Link to post Share on other sites
