Very nice Sky, you do some cracking jobs on these kits!

This is my Harrier picture although it is a GR 7 and not hanging on the wall at present, I got this as a gift when I left 3 Sqn.

Somebody called me 'pretentious' the other day.

I nearly choked on my latte.

And I third it. Beautiful model sky. Did you have to apply the rivets by hand as they do in scale or were they already molded in the model?

I wish I was a glow worm, a glow worm's never glum.
Cos how can you be grumpy when the sun shines out your bum?!

thanks for all comments, the rivets are molded into the model but i will hi light a bit more as the painting is not done yet and add some weathering to the model.

The Harrier looks very nice, Sky, thanks for sharing.

A quick question, what did you use to mask the canopy, was it a commercial mask or did you cut it yourself?

Thanks,
Andy
