Another nice build! It’s a shame we modelers spend so much time on interior details like your engine and it’s never seen again when we close everything up. Take care, Drew.

[@ArdeconHobby]

You're right Drew & thanks always, take care too.

A great build and paint job, when I have done this scheme on my Tamiya Sea Harrier I kept it gloss as the real ones were painted high gloss and flew for a maximum of 4 years before the Falklands war and the RN changed the scheme for combat operations, but this is your model and I love it!

[@ArdeconHobby]

Thanks, my friend.

素晴らしい！　懐かしい
凄く古いキットだけど、それをこんな風に仕上げるとは！
凄くカッコ良いですね。

[@Ronno4691]

Just bought one of these from the Uddingston Model Centre (in Scotland) and for a 1:72 scale kit, it's BIG! I paid £12.50 for mine. Looking at the two parts of the fuselage, it's >>almost

[@ArdeconHobby]

Thanks, my mate, and good luck with your build.

[@MrJohnyysmith]

Great 1:72 build considering it's 1:48

[@awickes18]

Looks great

[@ArdeconHobby]

Thanks, my friend.

[@rgj8044]

Nice modelling but personally I think the weathering craze is overdone. My opinion.

[@ArdeconHobby]

thanks, friend for your feedback.

[@SprueFascinationChannel]

Nice job 👍

[@ArdeconHobby]

thanks, my friend.

Tip: If you're going to handle a model with rubber gloves while painting it, you don't want to keep them while assembling because they will transfer paint where it isn't wanted.
Very nice build. A little more on cockpit detailing would have been helpful.

[@ArdeconHobby]

thanks for the tips, my friend,

[@jamesbednar8625]

Yep - learned that the "hard" way myself. I usually wear rubber gloves when spray painting everything and then take them off and re-use. Started noticing colors where I did not want nor color wanted. After every spraying painting epsiode, just throw them all now - besides, can always get more at work, if you know what I mean.

[@ArdeconHobby]

@@jamesbednar8625 yes, you're right but the best is to let the paint dry within 24 hrs just for sure.

👍👍👍

[@lawrencetimothylauzon6499]

how did you use the extra dark sea grey is it custom paint from tamiya or no?

[@ArdeconHobby]

Yes in Tamiya Dark Sea Gray but in my case I've tried to mix it with Dark Navy blue and gray to meet almost the primary color.

[@sp1tz]

Any tips?

[@ArtGutierrezair55]

this is an old kit by Tamiya, about the tips you may follow, the process step by step how it was built, and painted, thanks for asking SPITZ

[@Ronno4691]

Don't eat the yellow snow.

[@MHMajid-yi8iu]

👍

[@juliocalvo1940]

Old school 😂

[@ArdeconHobby]

thanks, my friend

[@Kairasp1]

I have also made this same model, but sorry to say you have completely F****d up the model with that lousy paint job. WHY, sorry to say.

[@ArdeconHobby]

[@GrummanF-14BTomcat]
