Linescriber Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Here's my 1/ 72 Gloster Javelin probably an ex-Frog/Novo Soviet kit boxed without a manufacturer's name or model name. The box top simply translates to “For Assembly, model aircraft, 1:72 scale”. The drawing indicated it was a Javelin and hence I threw in a Model Alliance decal sheet and laboured long nights to cope with clunky plastic and flash. Anyway here’s the result. I wanted to do an RAF 64 Sqn machine that visited India in 1963 for Exercise ‘Shiksha’ with IAF Hunters (along with USAF F-100s and RAAF Canberras). I used the reverse masking technique for the wing walk lines. I've posed it with its archrival the 1/72 A Model Yak 28 Firebar. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head in the clouds. Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Nice build of what looks like a dodgy kit, the Firebar looks good next to the Javalin too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry1954 Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Very nice Javelin from a very old kit. I especially like those two Firestreaks! Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
