Kurt H. Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Interesting subject. An aircraft in storage presents an interesting weathering challenge. That is also really cool box art. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have always wanted to do this with some of my older models I built when I was a kid. My plan was to use white out to replicate the spray-lat. Sean Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kurt H. Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Ahh now I see the wisdom in modelling an aircraft in storage, you do not need to build or paint the cockpit, so you can move forward pretty quickly 👍 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Whiskey Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Really nice set of harriers you have going on there, especially interested in that GR. 3. Care to share details about it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Care to share details about it? I'm not sure anymore? I now I've done a Monogram/Airfix hybrid but the more I look at that one the more I think it's just Airfix. I just can't remember..... I searched and searched this is an Airfix harrier built in 2013 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
