IanJohnB Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 (edited) Hi, This has taken ages and has been really fiddly - bits keep dropping off! I'm pleased with the result although the finish could be better Edited July 14, 2018 by IanJohnB To get photos to display! 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiskey Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Don't see that bird too often anymore these days. My old man was a project manager during its formidable heydays in the mid-90's at the Pentagon. My only critique would be that it wasn't an OD green color as this is depicted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanJohnB Posted July 16, 2018 Author Share Posted July 16, 2018 Thanks Whiskey. I did fudge the colour slightly as the as I couldn't find a good colour match. Appreciate your comments. Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aeroplanedriver Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 As a big "What If?" modeler I love the color on this machine. Really a shame it never made it to production. Nice job!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much you rate the kit overall, thank you I found the kit well made. The open flaps are really tricky to stick and get lined up. Also missiles are a bit fiddly. Overall though I would recommend the kit feels good and solid 😃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glatisant Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 A murderous looking machine. A super build. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unfinished project Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Nice one 👍 I’ve build this myself albeit the Italeri boxing. Such a shame it didn’t get put into production. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KelT Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 I know exactly what you mean about bits falling off, or flying across the room while you sit holding an empty pair of tweezers. I am also completely familiar with the taking ages part when so many people on BM pump out models faster than my dog can cover the carpet with white fur. But it really doesn't matter how long it takes or how much of that time is spent on hands and knees looking for fallen pieces. This is a great job, I have no idea what the colour was supposed to be but again it doesn't matter you've made a great looking model there. Excellent work Ian, well done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
