rafalbert Posted September 7, 2018 Author Share Posted September 7, 2018 Many thanks Dave, none of the edges are amazing, I will spend the weekend sorting them out (and working on the Blenheim) 👍 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxbat Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Wow, that looks a million times better than the last one I built. Proper quality build that. Andy Impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdrianMF Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 That finish looks super! If I could get that smooth/shiny I'd be well happy... Regards, Adrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabbit Leader Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Wow!! Isn't it amazing how a model pops out with the addition of a few stickers. See, I knew this was going to turn out great and to be truthful, she actually turned out wonderfully well. This has always been one of those good mid-seventies Airfix kits that has always been highly regarded. Surely we will see this kit released again in the Vintage Classics range with a set of new decals, now that would be something to invest in. Lets just hope that those nice people at Hornby co. are watching (.. and taking notes!) Cheers and well modelled... Dave 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 That has come up a treat, the decals look brilliant & set the rest of the build off wonderfully well. Nice one. Steve. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rafalbert Posted September 19, 2018 Author Share Posted September 19, 2018 Thanks for the comments guys! Well, I am finally done, she is finished. There are many things wrong, the anti glare panel and bombs are the wrong shade but overall it was pretty good fun to build. For a 1974 kit it stacks up well against the more modern stuff. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabbit Leader Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Yep - that’s a keeper. Lovely result and well modelled. That’s another one I’ll add to RL’s ‘wants’ list! Cheers.. Dave 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
