Alas the PR Purple Peril is no more!
I just could not 'see' the Javelin in PR Mauve (I'll save that colour for another time)

I'm afraid its just plain old PR Blue.











It just requires Markings and final paint touch ups and a spot of Varnish.
The British have raised their security level from "Miffed" to "Peeved". Soon though, security levels may be raised yet again to "Irritated" or even "A Bit Cross". Londoners have not been "A Bit Cross" since the Blitz in 1940 when tea supplies ran out for three weeks

Simple, clean and very believable.  Well done.

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

As everyone else has said, pure class on wings, very VERY well done.

Looking forward to the decaled and finished job very much.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Once again we are privileged to delve into the station photographer's files at RAF Hiding-in-The-Hedges,
The date; sometime in 1957, the Aircraft: The C.O.'s Javelin PR.10, XJ172 "M" of 82 Sqn (based at RAF Wyton)
caught here on a sunny day on the visiting aircraft pan at Hiding-in-The-Hedges :rolleyes:



Seen here with the normal operational fit of two 500 Gallon ventral tanks and two 475 Gallon wing tanks,
plus the appropriate Box Brownies and Kodak Instamatic's as required ;D








The Badge on the fin is supposed to represent 82's `weathercock imposed over the sun'

Very pretty.

Is Hiding-in-the-Hedges near Hinton-in-the-Hedges? :P

She's a beauty. :wub: I think the longer nose gives the Javelin a much more pleasant look, the original wasn't called the Flying Flat Iron for nothing!
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.
