AvPro Marauder (1/72)

[Dizzyfugu]

That's looking VERY good. 

And what about...?

[NARSES2]

Wonderful 

[zenrat]

You've put so much effort into it that it deserves something other than a "meh" grey paint job.

So I vote either the Harrier with the colourful fin or the Japanese one.
Or...

Excellent Work, superb scratch building work 

I've got to agree, it's scratch-building at it's best

harrier option 3 please !!

but aside form personal preference
Its a cracking Job so far, keep it up, and it will look amazing

Thanks for the kind words guys!

I really like Dizzy’s suggestion of the F-2 paint scheme, the only problem is it looks so “Japanese” and I’d like the Marauder to be British.  That being said, if I had some Japanese decals I’d seriously consider painting it like the F-2.  Right now I’m leaning toward the grey/green Harrier GR3 scheme, but considering it’s a maritime strike fighter I find the green a little out of place. 

I also really like that Japanese aggressor scheme, but I feel that splinter/hard edge schemes look too Russian.  Hmmmm…still can’t decide

Really impressive!  Great work.  I vote for a camouflage version for special operations work, like the very first rendering.

and the older Harrier scheme of Extra Dark Sea Gray over white?

[Thorvic]

The AW159 Wildcat currently sport a Medium Sea Grey/Dark Sea Grey disruptive camouflage scheme which might be suitable. Otherwise if it's 80's post 82 its overall Dark Sea Grey for the RN with Blue/Red tactical markings and black lettering or 90s onwards its Medium Sea Grey with the Pale Blue/Pink low vis roundels and white lettering.

The Avrpo artwork is probably Dark Sea grey era

Yeah, I like that.  It's grey, so maybe a little boring, but at least it's not solid grey. It's modern, British, and I have suitable decals.  Hmmm...

Well I'm on the west coast of the United States so I made it with hours to spare 

Although like Tophe, I was a little caught off guard because I actually thought I had all of the 14th left to work on this.

Regardless I got it done and I'm pretty darn happy with it.  Like all projects is has it's flaws but this by far the hardest thing I ever scratch built and the end result looks suspiciously like a Marauder.

[DogfighterZen]

No words other than: EXCELLENT!!   

[TheChronicOne]

Hell yeah!! That's the stuff right there!  It's 10 things at once, all done well.     

[Gondor]

Fantastic!

That's OUTSTANDING! One of the best pieces of work I've ever seen on here.
