discussion papa 695s Harrier Egg Plane

[papa 695]

Well this is going to be my first and main build in the Egg Plane GB.


I'm going for the British Harrier with my favourite colour scheme, the winter one.

Got the fuselage together, and I've cut the nose point off because I know I would only knock it off anyway.

This is looking good Ian ( I was looking at trying to get one of these but a lot of places sell them but they come from overseas ) so I have decided this year to pass. You will give me some ideas for next year though.


Great start by the way and for an eggplant there's a lot of decals to go with it


Eager to see more


Regards

These eggplanes look really bizarre.


Looking good though

 

[papa 695]

Also got this one primed and cockpit painted, just need to put some decals in then I can fit the canopy.

That is one Harrier that ate all the pies. Chubby little thing isn't it lol. Great progress though Ian.

 

[Guest]

Coming together quickly now.

 

[Guest]

That looks cool.

[papa 695]

Thanks Ralph and Scott

I had a bit of trouble with this one a couple of days ago, I was fitting the canopy when I dropped it and it landed on the nose wheel which broke off and pinged into thin air I've been looking for it in my modeling room for the 2 days and just can't find it. So I've had to make a new one from the spares box.

Just shows the value of a spares box. I really must start one.

They do come in handy Graham. The wheel is a little large but it's all I had it's from the Airfix Meteor I did earlier

Who's counting Ian, it is an egg after all

 

[Guest]

Nice rescue.

 

[papa 695]

I've finished the FW190 and put it on a base so I best get a move on with this one.


Well at least I've got some paint on it.

Nice looking camo.

 

[Robert1968]

That camo is just brilliant Ian even on such a little egg plane.


Beats the speckled hen any day.


Really nice
