James V Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Hi, I have mentioned on here in the past that I am part of the review group for Scale Modelling Now (www.scalemodellingnow.com). Whilst I am not on here to promote the site, I was asked for my first review to review the above mentioned plane; the 1/32nd Scale Revell Eurofighter. The model also includes an Isracast Litening Pod, 1/32 GBU-10's (Tamiya) and Two Bobs Decals, also weathered to give it an "operational" feel. A full 3,700 word review, 37 photos can be found on the website, but for your pleasure, I thought I would show this to you. I can get a few more photos on here for you if you wish to see. What is next? A 1/32nd scale F-16CJ (Tamiya) with 1/32 Isracast F-16D "Barak" conversion complete with conformal tanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Very nice job. It looks like she goes together well from the part fondling I've done so far - would you say that's fair? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Kelley Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 James, it is the best of the 1/32 bunch so far for me. Well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan P Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Fine result, especially the sympathetic weathering. Any observations you can give about the actual quality of the kit in terms of building? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Ogilvie Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Erm - I think you'll need to go to Scale Modelling Now for more as it's a review build I believe Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James V Posted March 4, 2010 Author Share Posted March 4, 2010 viper, I can post 3 - 4 shots on here tonight when i get in, as sig has said it is a review model so i cant go too overboard. Ness, the model does go together well, the review details areas and has a lot of photos of the build including shots of the main filling area.... All i can say is watch out for the sink marks on the kit, fill them in as the grey really shows them well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnthonyWan Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Looks great! Though I am more interested in the EA-7 on your site...is there an article on that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James V Posted March 5, 2010 Author Share Posted March 5, 2010 Antony, I will ask Geoff later today and PM you with a reply. In all seriousness, all of the kits are really reviewed well, there are loads of pictures and reviews on the site. It is also updated at least once a week (if not twice) with new reviews on aircraft, armour and boats. Also the site offers a techniques doctor so if you wanted advice there are at least 10 people on the team that are willing to help you.

EE Lightning Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Looks great! Though I am more interested in the EA-7 on your site...is there an article on that? Hello Anthony, I've just seen your posting and I am in the process of preparing the big feature article on the conversion of the Trumpeter A-7 into an EA-7L. It's a superb piece of modelling by Patrick Bouclans and you should see that in the Mag in the next 2 weeks? Best wishes, Geoff C.
