no need to shout.

All Geoff's builds shown on this thread are from a number of years ago, you may still be able to find the original threads on here using the search tool.

And as He has said, the 1214 and 1216 are not the same, the only thing useable from the 1216 for a 1214 is the lower engine pod.


oh a word of advice, dont get to pushy about getting me to do a 2nd run of the 1216. Push to hard and im likely to say no.

Something maybe relevant here - a caricature done by Malky (aka tubtattoo) over on Secret Projects.

Ah, I remember reading the thread when I first started lurking here.   Interesting aircraft.

schemes?  any Harrier operator would be a fair start.

Typhoon too, since it was an alternative to it.  I guess any potential operator of F-35 (especially the B model), Rafale & Gripen are possibilities, although I think it would have had a more niche appeal.  Countries with smaller carriers might be interested.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

I actually like your Scottish Air Force Roundel.

Quote from: Thorvic on January 12, 2011, 05:19:47 AMThe 1214 is quite a bit different in shape than the 1216, i used the Esci EF2000 kit for the 1214 and the Italeri Eurofighter for the 1216 as the the Esci profile was smaller and leaner than the Italeri.

You could of course try scratch building them, i did  and its not to bad as long as your happy with working with plastic card and milliput.

Well that's the fallback if we don't get the numbers. So apart from Eurofighters, any other kits that make up the bits, or is it all plasticard?

Allen of Fantastic Plastic has said on Secret Projects Forum that they will be releasing the P1214 in the Autumn (Fall) created and produced by Anigrand (probably based on the 1/144 version they did in their Sentinel R1 kit )
