Shawn M Posted February 23, 2016 Author Share Posted February 23, 2016 Max is correct, early ones didn't even then through time the fin flash arrived then changed a few times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phartycr0c Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Lovely execution of a classic kit. That really deserved being built sympathetically and youve certainly done that. Well done. Shawn M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martinnfb Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 This is a awesome build, nicely weathered and displayed. I can just feel the joy of building behind. Thank you for the journey Shawn. Cheers M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmthamade Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Yup!! nice build and a nostalgic reminder for when i spent hours on the classics. Did most of them, never did the Spit. Thanks for the WIP and the memories. Don Shawn M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn M Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 Thank you everyone, Im glad you enjoyed it. I did as well and am looking forward to my next old revell build. Not sure if it will be the Stuka or Car Door Typhoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozart Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) Ah ha, I've got the Revell Typhoon (early type) lined up to build soon too, just bought Barracuda's seat and wheels for it and I'm going to try camouflage masks on it for the first time.

Shawn M Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 thank you for the link! I think Im gonna hack at the tiffy with no proper AM bits, just scratch work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozart Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Those are the only AM bits I plan to use Shawn, but the Barracuda wheels are an absolute "must" for me. Max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn M Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 I can see that Max, the kit wheels are "meh" at best. That said i do think I have an Eduard Harness set in that box, cant recall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Absolutely superb build of an old - but obviously fairly sound, kit - shows what some modelling skills can do! Have taken the liberty of adding some photos to the Gallery thread here. Iain Shawn M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
