Dmanton300 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) Built more or less from the box. Superb model, although I do think it's perhaps a shade fat around the nose. Paint is Mr Color, weathering with oils, final finish Vallejo. Markings are from Eagle Strike for a 48th TFW machine during the Kosovo crisis. Great kit, but overshadowed (in my eyes anyway) by the almost simultaneously released Academy one which is just sharper overall, and has a better nose shape to my eye. Nonetheless, either will make a beautiful model. Edited August 20, 2017 by Dmanton300 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.Happy Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Looks like a great job to me👀🤓👍 Hoping that you could or will post more photos of this Eagle 🦅 📸🙏 From what I've seen the Academy kits burner cans in there E are the old Turky Feathers type . The version or option for the one without Turkey Feathers is very simplistic. I think you made the better choice in building the GWH offering Cheers, Mr.Happy(In name only) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gb_madcat_sl Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Nicely done. I have one of these in the stash and am looking forward to building it. Mark Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Falconxlvi Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Looks great! I think you made the better choice too. After fondling plastic at the US Nats, I can tell you the nozzles in the Academy offering are terrible and will need to be replaced. Steve Quote Link to post Share on other sites
