Sea Harrier FRS.1


Riggers

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Just need a little help & advice......

I'm planning on starting the 1/72 Italeri FRS.1 Sea Harrier 1236......now I want to depict it fully laden with AIM9L's & the drop tanks c/w RBF tags on the ordnance & aircraft......BUT, I cannot find anywhere (Google) the engine intake FOD covers/bungs.

Can anyone help out with either ideas OR somewhere/someone who sells in 1/72 for the Harrier or adaptable for the Harrier?

 

Thanks so much all.......

They're fairly easy to scratch build, simply cut out a piece of plasticard the same shape as the intake and glue it in place: you might need to add a thin reinforcing strip behind the blank.  To represent the later inflatable blanks, cover the surface of the plasticard with tissue to give it some texture and then run a sausage of Milliput (or your filler of choice) around the outside of bung.

 

Hope this helps.
