canberraman Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 A magnificent Starfighter and love the base and take off pose. That colour scheme really suited the 104. Thanks for sharing, it's a delight! Mark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shark444 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Probably the coolest and most creative display stands EVER! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binbrook87 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Superb 'hooter' 👍 I like the way you've done something different in showing the aircraft on take off. You can almost hear the afterburner! 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAT69 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Well thought out and beautifully executed display. It's rare, or so it seems to me, that you see a model showing the landing gear retraction in mid sequence. That adds a lot to your model. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheyJammedKenny! Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Fantastic work! I love the way you depicted the gear cycling into the fuselage! The color scheme is brilliant, too. I had no idea that Norway's were in an overall green-over-gray scheme. Where did you get the pilot figure? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't remember whether they were originally silver too, like the 331 Squadron. Pilot is from Airfix kit. (Skyhawk or Buccaneer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackmike Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 That's a beautiful Starfighter model and superbly displayed, Reini - I especially love the take-off pose with the undercarriage retracting. Well done! Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
