Finished Tornado ADV - 1/48 Hobby Boss

[yak face]

Hi derek, ive not been doing any modelling for ages, My dad recently passed away so ive not been in the shed at all for a couple of months. The thing thats in progress at the mo is the 1/48 yak 1 and lily litvyak figure for the GB, ive still got another 6 weeks so i might get it done in time!!After that i think i might start my 1/32 wedell williams 1930's racer and put with it a figure of the fascinating but eccentric col. roscoe turner complete with pet lion cub ( google it - he was madder than a box of frogs!!) and no doubt ill have a few others on the go at the same time , after all ive got a varied stash to choose from! cheers mate tony

Hi Tony, very sorry to hear about your dad, please accept my deepest sympathies. Glad to see you are back on the modelling trail, its a great way to escape from the real world for a few hours. Keep your pecker up mate. Cheers Derek

I've only just caught up with this build and have to say the level of realism (is that really a word?) is incredible. You've bought a difficult colour right to life. One to be proud of.

Hi Colin, glad you like it. It was a funny kit, superb wings, then they leave an ugly hole where the HUD lense should be, also they didn't supply enough Decals, plus a few other niggles. Cheers Derek

Very nice work mate, the attention to detail is A+, and the weathering looks superb. The tornado is a great looking aircraft, i will have to make one at some point

Absolute cracker, an education in wash effects and weathering.

Thanks very much chaps, I built a few models before I picked up the courage to attempt weathering. Cheers Derek
