The 'here we go again thread'... (1/48 Tornado GR.1)

All things jet, no props and Stik...no armor even though the M1 is turbin powered.

Thanks Carlos - I'm reasonably pleased with how they came out but like all things I've got some ideas when I do the next.

Great to have the cockpit closed up and finished now though - onto the sanding! (and more filling!)

To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

In case you need some inspiration, here is a nice ship hunting GR.1 with the big drop tanks and a pair of Sea Eagle missiles...

It's nice to have these third world problems! The trouble is I have too many ideas...

... Can you get a 1/48 British Phantom? :hmm:
