Colin W Posted March 16, 2020 Author Share Posted March 16, 2020 Well no progress for a little while but managed some visible activity this weekend. All decals now on.I bought this set from 2 Bob's about 10 years ago. All applied. And underside. Just finishing the payload, cockpit and minor details. 2 green Sidewinders visible in the last picture. Colin 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehnz Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 That looks wonderful. I hadn't been following as it was not my scale but that was a mistake & now I've read this right through, a real treat, with some great modelling on display.

They deserve their own post. Well along with the funky green sidewinders Colin 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin W Posted March 22, 2020 Author Share Posted March 22, 2020 Well here's the final plane finished. Pics in the Gallery but a few more here Not quite 'from the box' but what is in the box is enough to make a good model without a load of resin. Thanks to the Mods and for all the other helpful comments along the way. Its been great to have the input from the Nordic Britmodellers to help with the fine details. Especially thanks to Tricky Rich for building this last year and giving me the inspiration to get on and build it. Colin 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exdraken Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 (edited) Wow, fantastic! Funky green Sidewinders you say? look at your really funky green plane first those are BLIND training rounds... what about the RB04s? Are they live rounds, I suppose?

trickyrich Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 well done Colin a superb job, and as you can now see really worth the effort! They are certainly a scene stealer in any group of models. I'm glad you enjoyed the build (and that I inspired you to have a go), it was great to follow and I have a feeling you really enjoyed the experience as well. Again, well done mate! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 That is a beautiful result Colin, definitely one to aspire to. Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
