Lovely build of a beautiful bird!

Fantastic, really sharp and clean looking! Nice work.

Stunning paint job, really nice build.

Well, I've finally finished the A10 I've been working on for the last few months. Its by no means perfect, and I've ended up with a few compromises as I just wanted to get it finished if I'm completely honest. Its not totally accurate either, I chose the decals on what I thought looked best, so there are a mixture on there. I wasn't happy with the engine fans so I made up some covers, I'm not sure on them either really but I ran out of patience with this one. The weapons load is non-existent as to be honest the quality of the ones supplied in this kit is pretty poor. I made up a few but they l

Really nice work so far, I love this bird and looking forward to seeing it in 1/32 done right! I went for a swing role weapons load when I built my Typhoon (1/48 - and I am in no way comparing mine to this, I am a mere beginner in comparison!), but this is even more feasible now with the P1E software release happening around now on Typhoon, which gives it a full swing role capability. A pic of mine: Really gives it some stance with the Paveways on there I think! :)

Lovely build, great level of detail and finish!

Well, got my new airbrush last week, so set about getting some more done on this, and ended up progressing quite a lot due to the horrible weather last weekend! I painted up the front landing gear bay, using white and some chrome to bring out some details, then did my first ever attempt at a wash! The flash makes the chrome details look white as well, but you get an impression. I could have went more detailed, but this won't be visible on display. (My hat goes off to all the people on here that spend months on details that won't be visible in the final display, it must take a lot of patience

Really nicely done, finished this same model myself not long ago and I really enjoyed it! No-where near as tidy as your example though, top work!

Absolutely amazing finishing on this, it looks perfect!

Looking good, that propeller effect looks really nice!

Well, finally got some time again to do a bit more of this. Bought the extra paints I needed and got cracking on with the cockpit, starting with the seat. Looking online at some reference pictures, the seat has a green padding section - I considered scribing in some detail onto the seat, as I'm not using a pilot, but then I remembered seeing someone use blu-tac to make a seat pad, so thought I'd give it a go! Measured up: Added some detail - Then painted - On the seat - This is my first ever attempt at 'scratch' building anything, so I'm pretty pleased with how it turned o

Lovely, amazing quality and attention to detail!

Creates a nice effect with that, will look great when completely finished! Are you just powering the LED's from battery? Did you use a resistor in series with LED to protect it from current spikes?

Wow, thats a serious wingspan! Nice work.

I built one of these a few years ago before I started taking my time with them, nice little model and does go together easily! I completely messed up the decals though, the white arrow on the underside is quie hard to get on without it tearing! Look forward to seeing the finished result!
