Great build of a impressive aircraft Mike, yes i have a soft spot for the Prowler (and Intruder). Big five bud.

Have fun, John

So three failed builds and then this ! What a turn around. It looks great, I've always liked a desert scheme. Did you colour the canopies yourself or is that the colour as supplied ? Also any idea why 4 crew ? Yes I could google it, but it's your build so maybe you know.

Hi Colin

The canopies were painted using Tamiya clear orange, but I watered this down by 50% I applied it with a large brush, just to avoid brush strokes

There are 4 crew 1 x pilot and one weapon’s officer and 2 radar tactical officers

What more is there to say!

Well it looks like you have gotten over your slump. A very impressive build of a very Impressive (and Big) Aircraft! Just how big it is anyway, It would be silly to buy one and find I dont have the room for it!!!

Five more stars on the way.
