Makes me want to break out my RAF Skywarrior project!

Me too ( I'm planning on bunging a Hawkeye rotodome on a B-66  :blink: )

Been batting around a similar idea for this plan (just don't have the kit yet) however, was thinking of doing an actual bomber version.

Yours looks sharp.
Wonder if Santa can find one for me (makes note to add to Wish List).

Wow that's some really stunning work, Ian! It's a treat to see what a modeller of your talent and skill can do with a subject like this. It looks sweet in British camo! This one's sure to turn a lot of heads!

Ian, that is a really well done model, it looks very convincing in the camouflage and markings that you have added to it.

Excellent.  Would a Falklands War example have a refuelling probe and Dark sea Grey undersides (like the Black Buck Vulcans), I wonder? :D  :D

Hahahaha....good one, bro !

;)

Love it, love it, love it ! A sexy aeroplane with the world's coolest camo...what a combo ! Love the little lumps and bumps you've added, great stuff. That'll be a real head turner ! Be sure to park it between a few Phantoms or the like in the same camo, really confuse 'em !

Extremely believable.  Too believable, in fact.  I've got to go look this one up, now.

Don't know how you pull off such clean camo work in 1:72 but there it is: staring me in the face.  Where are all the nasty little flaws and fingerprints, etc.?

Oh wait, those are MY models I'm comparing with.

Stunning!   :wub:  :thumbsup:

Another beautiful build Ian, you've got to have one of the nicest overall collections out there.

Oh they're there, Mr Mouse, trust me.... I'm NOT being falsely modest, but in this instance the photo really does lie. This is one of my worst camo jobs in a long, long time. When/if it is ever seen in the flesh, then it will be seen for the 'big lump of nasty' that it truly is.

Not to demean anybodies kind comments, but really, guys, it isn't too good at all. The upcoming Shooting Star T.3 and Thunderstreak FGA.2 will be much better - and they will be 1:48 ! as will the 1:72 Thunderbolt GA.1A
