discussion Airfix Hunting Percival Jet Provost T.3 1:72

[Guest]

A little bit of nostalgia.
As an RAF cadet in my teens I was lucky enough to get a ride in a Jet Provost at RAF Cranwell. For the RAF 100 group build on the MM site I thought this would fit the bill nicely.
No pictures of sprues etc., but here is progress so far. All gone together quite nicely, with the addition of the Eduard etch for the cockpit. Primed and ready for paint!

Need to work on my posting skills to get all of the pictures the same!

Looking really nice. This will be a really nice build to watch for me. I really like the look of these little aircraft and do mean to build one or two in the future.

Hi Jim
That is a beautifully painted and detailed cockpit.

Nice start Jim, and a very appropriate 100 year project too.

Thanks for the kind words. A bit too warm for painting this weekend, so I may just settle for a cold beer instead!
