Recommended Posts

Airfix's new(ish) Harrier GR1:

Straight from the box using the kit decals, and there are a lot!:

Brush painted with Humbrol Enamels, Glosscote for decals, Mattecote for final finish:

Nice simple easy build and decals went on no problem, just a touch of Decalfix needed for the roundels on the fuselage:

I have the GR3, Sword T4, and a couple of Shars in the stash, hopefully they are as nice to build as this one,

Thanks for your interest,

Sean

Nicely done. The GR3 and SHARs wont give you any trouble. The sword kit is a bit fiddly. I got mine together and it looks good. Needs decalling and finishing off.

Hm.Good work. Its been enough to inspire me to make a start on my new tool Airfix kit which is now fast approaching priming and painting!

Cheers fellas, I appreciate you all taking the time to leave feedback

Very nice result. Love the moss ( weeds? ) on the base - marvelous touch.

Cheers,

Mike

Grass? I rather like the look of a base for the photos, I figure they set the model off nicely,

Hi,

I have that one here too in my 'soon-to-build' pile.

Is that the way the model sits on the ground built oob? It looks a bit too much nose down, tail up to me. Or is it the perspective/camera lens maybe?

Looked again at the sit of the Harrier, it does seem to be sitting down at the front a bit, but not overly so, must be my crappy photo skills <_<

Regards

Sean

Nice looking plane, the base brings quite a bit of reality to the shots. Great job.

Cheers riffraff,

I reckon a base is a simple addition to a photo that just adds something a bit extra,
