my entry for the gb

No idea how old it is but the last time i saw this much flash Queen were singing the soundtrack! 🤣

Going to what sort of job i can make of it but im way out of my comfort zone

That kit has got to be 25 years old. Interesting to see how you get on.

How nice of Revell to give you all that spare plastic.

Its a nice kit paul once youve cleaned the flash off. Just a couple of areas to watch out for - be very careful cutting the engine fan off the sprue , the blades are very fragile , and watch out removing the nose ring section , the sprue gates overlap onto the front surface and its a careful clean up . The cockpit is quite good but you dont get the option to have an open canopy as the rear sliding section is moulded as part of the fuselage. When I did mine I cut this off and used a spare Airfix canopy . Whatever I’m sure it’ll be a great build , cheers tony

Flashtastic mate……sure it will clean up well though…

[Geoffers]

Definitely an oldie 🤞 it’s a golden one for you 😉

Good luck with your build.

Looking good Paul.

[PaulTRose]

Had a few days off so no progress but ive had an idea......i fancy trying to do it 'in flight'

So im going to have a go at making a stand before i do anything else.......in case it dont work in which case it will get wheels attached 🤣
