Now this is Art! Gorgeous work!

I love how the nose looks almost transparent and that is some excellent effects! The usage if tarps to cover the transparent parts gaps is simple, yet very effective. 

Top Notch!

Nice looking Harrier, Nick! The paint and weathering look fantastic. How did you do the vent openings? Cut or aftermarket? I have the old Airfix kit, trying to decide what to do. Joe

Just finished the old 1/48 P47D kit in the "Pied Piper" version. The Squadron In Action (#208) has a picture of it on page 21. Assigned to the 310th FS, 58th FG at San Jose AB on Mindoro Island, late 1944. Has that faded war weary look. 

Tried to stay true to the kit, only changes were brass tubing for guns, tape to accent the molded in safety belts, and a wire pitot tube. 

A fun build, I attempted this kit when I first got back into the hobby. Butchered it pretty badly, so it was nice to finish the kit (not the one I started!) and put it on display.

I finally finished "restoring" my Monogram FW-190.  Like some others, it's been sitting in a box for 50 years awaiting the day I would pull it out and work on it.  Broken parts were fixed with a lot of putty and the windscreen was replaced with cut out clear plastic (easier than I thought).  The first photo shows the condition of the model prior to repair (as you can see I have a few more to go).

Thanks for looking!

I have been fascinated of late with the SR-71.  Lots of great pilot interviews on youtube worth watching.  So I got the old Revellogram 1/72 and gave it a whirl.  My goal was a quick stress free build.  Mission accomplished.  No OCD in this build.  That said after being happy with the paint job, I should have gotten aftermarket decals.  The Revell supplied decals are terrible.  But from 5 feet it looks OK.

The decals may have given you some problems, but overall your Blackbird looks very sharp! The distance shot shows the beauty without revealing the flaws. Wink

Man...ive got over 60 in my current stash in 1:48 scale.  Currently working on the 1:48 Spitfire mkii.  Ill get some pics posted up when im done.  I love building the Revell-Monogram kits as they are the ones I built as a kid and they remind of me of the good old days.  They can really be built into some nice kits if your not a rivit counter. 

Perfection is having fun and relaxing...not building the perfect model.

Squeezed in one last Revell build in 2021.  Finished it the morning of 31 December.  This is the Revell Germany Spitfire IX with Tamiya decals.  Got it as a builder's special from a chap over on Aircraft Resource Center.  He included a fret of Tamiya PE as well.

 

Thanks for looking and happy new year.
