discussion Red Arrows ‘What if’ EE Lightning. Airfix 1/48th.

[Farmerboy]

Not a build from the newly released Lightning, build a few years ago on a whim as I was bored with ‘grey’ jets, markings are masked and painted in the main, with a few of the kit decals used. Xtracolor Red Arrows Red.
Shown alongside a Hasegawa Phantom.

WOWEE Famerboy two fantastic models together im over whelmed as both planes look spot on an i'll say this you sir are a 100 % better modeler than me i could never make them that good pity my dad was not still alive as he used to be the heavy duty crane driver up at RAF COLTISHAL an i was with him in the botom of the controll tower when the big 16 lightnigs done a display an funny enough back then he happen to remark pity they were not done in red arrows colours as then they were flying the folland knagts
but fansatic model an love the phantom as well very very well done sir

The lightning would have been an awesome Red Arrows aircraft! 9 of them in diamond… hmm sounds like a job for an AI...
