There's that T-10 Harrier at the shop...mmmmmh, delta wing, TSR-2 nose, plenties of sidewinders underwings, "souris" in the air intakes...hey, I also have this F-111 set of decals...

Yeah that Book that comes with the Harrier has great pics and brilliant for figuring out how to paint weapons.
The Lego scheme looks like this, wasn't it Damien that did one on a 72nd Harrier?

[Eddie M.]

Oh, yea! That looks simple enough . Especially with all the curves on this bad boy.   Lemonjello did this to his Whiskey Hog, except he called his marpat.

I got a very good tip from someone at FSM. For those of you that are going to build this, here's a helpful hint that I got. Before bonding the main gear in place, be sure to test fit the wing with the outriggers to make sure they all touch the deck. By dumb luck, mine where okay. Maybe a little sanding on the outriggers, but over all, not too bad.

Hi all!

Close Leigh it was a 1/48 Airfix FA.2 build as a USMC FV-9

[Eddie M.]

I got a bit of sanding done, wing is on permanently and added sludge to the wheels.


Too bad they couldn't have molded it like this I shot at WOH'05'

Yeah, those 1:48 people figures look sooooo real!

Hey that looks like a Harrier!      Coming along nicely, nice reference pics too. Are you telling me you can make those minor mods just because you want a quick easy build?  

Your making me want to start my Harrier but it's not on the schedule yet!

I wish I could make those mods without too much trouble, but I'm trying to keep this as simple as possible. I think I'm going with a white, gray and black camo.(JHM, look at the DEC. pic of your Applied Energy calendar of the A-4s. That's what I'm using as a reference) I envision this being stationed in Adak to help defend against the hostile Russian reclaimation of Alaska.

[Brian da Basher]

That's one great looking camo scheme there Mr Miller!
