cjb2562 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Hi all, Just a thanks to everyone who helped me get underway on this kit, on the cockpit details. I would also like to thank Phil Flory for helping select the correct wash for this kit and it worked a treat and also for his encouragement. I finnished off with Lifecolours and used the Astra decal set which have not turned out too great.But, once again thanks to everyone who helped on this subject and here are a couple of pics, hope you like them.

dswoofie Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Cool! That's better! I like the openable radar and nose. If you've got a macro mode on your camera it will help with shots like these. It should look like a little flower (tulip thingy) it'll focus a lot closer then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobs_Buckles Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 What is she like to build? I would love to have a crack at the Tamiya 1/32 Bunker Buster. Other than the Saber this is the only other Jet that will enter my house. Cheers. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoyed building this one as my first large scale...only another 5 to go! + all the 1/48's..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColinR (aka ARC Scotsman) Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 Beautiful build , the Tamiya Eagles are fun , apart from that upper wing/fuselage transition - crack that and the rest of the build is pretty well a breeze! I keep trying to persuade my self to build one of the early C's from Desert Storm , but after 3 under the belt already , I'm not that enthusiastic - I Really Like 32nd !
