James V Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Hi all, Hope that you are all well. I was asked by a friend to build him a 1/48th Scale Tornado following the Tornado that I build for the Group Build. As I was feeling a little lost with my 1/32 Lightning Project I thought that this would be a good filler for me to clear my head! Anyway Its the standard build, Paragon Slats, Flaps, Bulged Tyres, Burner Cans and Model Alliance decals. A joy to build... Enjoy James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarlet Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Very nice build. How did you find the decals? I've used the 72nd versions and found the fin badge a bit see through when placed over the white one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
