1/72 Esci Harrier Gr.3


Recommended Posts

Hi there! here is other of my models, the old but great Esci Harrier Gr.3 in artic wraparound camo. I used the Airwaves PE set for the Sea Harrier slightly modified. Tha bang seat is from the Airwaves range too, and the bombs from Flightpath. Hope you like it.

Hi friends, many thanks for your kind words.

Jcarr162000, to simulate the scrapped off efect of the white I used the salt technique. I guess you know it. This was my first with it and I must say that it was not so hard to achieve this effect.

Arnobiz, you are right. I used pastels for the weatering, I'm not a devotee of the washes. I,ve tryed them several times without good result...

Thanks again.

Juan

I realy like this model!! :jaw-dropping :pray:

Turned out fantastic. One point of critic is that you have it armed with too modern weapons. I am not sure if the GR-3 was able to carry them.

Hi Eric2020, many thanks for your praise words. About the armament, let me disagree with you, but as far as I know Harrier Gr3 used this kind of guided bombs on Malvinas/Falklands war. Even, I've found some pics on the web to illustrate this:

Many thanks anyway for your interest.
