BastianD Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 Finally ready to be shown in full! This VAQ-141 Prowler is a Monogram kit, with aftermarket decals from Fightertown, an Aires cockpit, Hypersonic engine tubes and Wolfpack IPAC III update set. First kit ever that I have air brushed and I am very satisfied with the result! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Underdog Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Bastian, Both the Grumman Intruder and Prowler were special aircraft, during their time in the military. Very unique and distinctively looking machines, like no other. And, you have done a marvelous job on this build. Especially, it being your first attempt at using an airbrush on this project. "Have to say, great looking model... you done good!" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BastianD Posted May 2, 2020 Author Share Posted May 2, 2020 Thanks for the nice compliment, I had a lot of inspiration on YouTube to start airbrushing, and learnt a lot of tricks there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
