Finished this model in a bit of a hurry, so not completely up to scratch! (Hey Practice makes perfect!)
Though overall I think this one went better than my last.
Decals were pretty good for being made in the 70's to 80's, except for the shark mouth which I ripped because it wouldn't fit. So I ditched it! Leaving it with Blank eyes, which imho look pretty neat.
Bombs were a pain, and now most of them have glue on them.
Also Im pretty stoked at making a clear gun sight to replace the weird plastic thing that was up front.
In the cockpit shot you can kinda see the clear sight I made. Im so stoked about it because I don't normally scratch build!
Next you can see the open engine (without cover)
And lastly the munitions, why wouldn't I have a shot of the most painstaking part of the build?!
Nicely done Tama and I see you found the info on the correct photo angles, but you're a bit over the extended close date so not sure if we can include this in the final tally. However, let's see what the others say before making a final ruling.
Nice one Tama, and it's ok with me - I keep thinking it's still Sunday, due tot the long (four day) weekend. Something to do with the Queen being Queen for 60 years I think - she didn't come to my 60th party, so haven't taken much notice of hers!
