Popular Post alex_stela Posted January 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 27, 2022 My first kit completed this year - AV-8S (VA-1) Matador, 1:72 Italeri (ex-ESCI). My 5th Harrier so far! Built out of the box (except for Pitot tube from Master, resin ejection seat from Pavla and some scratch). Italeri's kit is old and needs some work, but I'm quite happy with a result. Thanks for watching! 86 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

binbrook87 Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 That's very very nice indeed. 😁 A super finish on what i think is one of the best little kits ever built 👍 The Esci/Italeri Harriers really capture the aircraft beautifully 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrés S. Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Hi. I've also done a couple of Harriers. One AV-8S (Gr.1 from Airfix) and one Gr.3 from Italeri (exEXCI). And while the new Airfix mold has things going for it, I think the first generation Harrier ESCI kits are still the best overall. I have to congratulate you because the work you have done is really good, however you have overlooked that the AV-8S had a gloss finish paint and although a pure gloss does not offer a good appearance at 1/72 (it may look like a toy) a satin finish would be more correct. Still, I want to express my admiration for such a good job. Andrés S. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxhandybread Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Really beautiful work, this colour scheme really suits the harrier! .. forgive my ignorance, but what's the really tall pointy antenna? It gives it a really sharklike appearance 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amos brierley Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 It could well be be different - it to some is diminutive - it’s certainly delicious. 😉 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
