Robert Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Alan, that is one amazing model. You have captured the look and poise of the aircraft very effectively. Hopefully we will be able to see this for real. Regards Robert 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 (edited) This is another superstar build, the pilots are especially a standout. Edited June 9, 2021 by Stephen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Tony Thanks Tony, yes Leeming gone the way of so many great bases 😔 you might be interested in a 1/32 Beaufighter I started in the same build thread, it's almost finished and will be in RFI soon! Thanks again, Alan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feifeitim Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Absolutely fabulous build - well done! I’m very happy though that there weren’t a couple of EF3 squadrons - it would have put me out of a job! The integration of the ALARM on the GR1/4 was actually pretty good which is probably why the idea was shelved. I too love your model with its beautiful photoshopped background! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks very much, this is particularly good to hear from you. I was hoping you might pop up during the build, but I'm really glad you like the finished product 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightningboy2000 Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Wow, I think you can be rightfully proud of that! Must be one of the best F-3's I've ever seen built as a model. Fantastic job! Martin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiseca Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 I always love a Tornado, and that one looks fantastic. Lovely job! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveyGair Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Wow!! What a magnificent beast! I'm mainly WW2 with the odd Cold War Soviet jet, this looks superb, but I'll stick to sometime building the 1/72nd Revell Gr.1 I have (just because I have 617 Sqn .decals for it!). Great work, especially with the resin parts. Davey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure you'll enjoy the 1/72 Revell, it's the best available in that scale (Hasegawa is running a very close second but dated now) Thanks again both, Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherry268 Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Stunning build made to look even better with a stunning pose. Fantastic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyW Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 A stunner. The icing on the cake for me is the tilt you have added to the pilots head. It adds so much to the overall finish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very kind of you to mention that, it looked more dynamic than him just staring through the HUD, so I'm glad you noticed! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen57 Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 Best praise i can give, it doesn’t look like a model! Wow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyot Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 Looks fantastic Alan,..... like you say, a very interesting version and role to boot,....... shame they did`t last long. Now that the USA has proved itself under the present leadership to be rather unreliable towards its old Allies,..... maybe the RAF should stop relying on them for specialist roles like this and start to reconvert some of the earlier two seat Typhoons as Growlers? Cheers Tony 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 Wow, what a super build Alan, missed it first time around, my scale filter must have been set on high. I've one of these to do in my favoured 1/72, hopefully it'll look just like that, just not so grown up. Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
