Ron Pearcy Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 (edited) A very enjoyable build. Excellent fit of parts except for intake nozzles,but that could have been my fault. Attention to detail is superb,especially on the undercarriage bays. Cockpit can be made to look busy with a bit of work. The intake/exhaust innards are quite complex but not a lot can be seen in the finished model. I struggled a little with the decals because they were very thin. I find that a fine line between too thick and too thin is sometimes difficult to achieve. A lot of fine masking is required to get the silver leading edge on the wings and horizontal tail but it's well worth the effort. All in all,well done Airfix. Will post more pictures if required.

dbay133 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Lovely Buccaneer. More images of the detail would be good. Cheers Graeme 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin-42 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 1/48 or 1/72? I don’t think I have read “excellent fit of parts” used in reference to the 1/48th one before! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
