Harrier GR5 Pegasus 11-61 test airframe

[SaintsPhil]

Morning everyone!

Well I missed the GB deadline by a day in the end! It looked like I was going to make it then SWMBO got sent home from work halfway through her shift as they had too many staff!

I took my time finishing it in the end, but as always there are a few bits I'm not 100% happy with though!

Build thread here:

Basically it's the new airfix GR7/9 kit, which is fantastic, plus Quickboost GR5 nose, airwaves PE set (mainly for the IP) and some scratch built parts, mostly ideas nicked from Mark (Harry Line) builds!

Here are the pics, I played about a bit with lighting, I used the spots that came with my photobooth for some and my daylight lamp for others!

Hope you like them!

As always comments welcome

I thought I recognised that fuel dump pipe! Great build, looks the nuts in that scheme. You and Bill have made up my mind that I'm going to have to build a GR5 in that scheme very soon.

A great looking model of a great aircraft in a great looking scheme.

I will have to do a GR.5 myself soon.

Thanks Mark, top tip about fuel dump thanks! I never got round to making the step, save that for the next one!

Nils, if we build enough GR5 Airfix might even kit one!
