AndrewCJ50 Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 I thought I might try a new challenge and go down from the big scale of 1/72 to 1/144. So I dug out this Dragon Tornado from the attic. They do a weird cockpit with Mr Blobby crew, so the whole cockpit and ejector seats had to be scratch built. I have to say 1/144 is a very unforgiving scale! Too tall nose wheel or skew whif pylons are all too easy errors to make. The canopy was not all that good so had to use filler to fair it into the spine. Anyhow tell me what you think? You might recognise the 56(F) Squadron markings It's an old scratch built RAF hanger in the background and an Oxford Diecast landrover Andrew 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 I agree with you regarding the way Dragon deal with pilot figures, but other than that I think the Dragon kits have aged pretty well. Nice result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertie McBoatface Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 That's excellent. I thought it was at least 1/72 until I saw the coin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winded Penguin Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Excellent, before I saw the coin 👍 Then the coin really got my attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
