GSymmonds Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 I'm on a bit of Harrier kick at the moment - this is the very old Tamiya Sea Harrier completed as 800 NAS ZA176 in June 1982 heading out for a CAP mission in the Falklands War. Overall there's a number of errors with the kit - some of which I chose to correct and others I did not. In the end it sure does look like a SHAR despite the shortcomings. The model is displayed in flight with Coastal Kits blur effect display base mounted on an acrylic rod - the base does convey a nice "speed" effect. Decals are from Aeromaster and a few of the pink ones from the new Kinetic kit which I intend to build in a different scheme. The retracted outrigger wheels are from an equally old Tamiya Harrier GR.1 (as I said - I'm on a harrier roll...!) Pitot tube and AOA sensor are from Model Master. Sidewinders are from the spares box as the ones supplied are devoid of any resemblance to the real thing! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
