Popular Post chameleon2009 Posted January 1, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 1, 2019 Hi Guys first off a happy new year to you all, hope there are not too many soar heads!! let me introduce you to the 1/32 Revell GR4 Tornado, I used Aires ejector seats and cockpit, and pilots from PJ Productions, with the decals from fantasy workshop, the rest is OTB. The kit goes together ok, but you need to be patient with it , I used HATAKA acrylics which are turning out to be my favoured brand, enjoy. 77 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutch Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 Stunning, simply stunning... I love the animated crew and the weathering is devine. I don't know how you did it but it even looks heavy... Best I've seen in a long time. Now, can I get my 1:48 tornado to be anywhere close 😝 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpha Delta 210 Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 Wow! That is one of the best GR4 models I have seen! Put it in front of a model HAS and it would look awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldy Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 Stunning finish and weathering! Beautifully detailed! One of the best 1/32 Tornados that I can recall seeing. Cheers Malcolm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmyg352 Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 That is exceptional. When I see work like that I feel like chucking all my tools away & flogging my stash of kits. I hate you. (not really) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PZL104 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) That's a very realistic finish and weathering! Simply amazing. Did you use the HATAKA acrylics (blue, red or orange line?) for the extremely realistic looking thrust reverser buckets as well?

Hi Its the Orange line, I find them to be very accurate, but having spoken to a tornado technician, they used to use any grey spray can from Halfords for all the touch ups. the engines were the mew MIG range of metalizers Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Witness Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 The model looks excellent! Where did you get a 1/32 FLIR pod for under the nose? Any pictures of the underside? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redstaff Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Very nice indeed I've got the same decals and Revell 1/48th GR4 to build at some point, if it turns out half as good as that I'll be well happy Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
