Hey everyone, long time no talked,

 

Since I built that baby OOB 4 years ago, I always wanted to do a NAM Raider a bit different

than the usual one we mostly see....

Ohhhh YES...... Iron rain you asked, Iron rain you'll get....lol. :m0152:    :evil_laugh:

with a touch of heat..... :wicked:

 

Didn't get all my goodys yet and still have some more to order but want to keep it a very simple,

built and no fancy scratch at all..(anyway, I'm no good at scratching stuff....lol.)

 

Going to use:

  • this up mention AOA decal sheet,
  • AMS Prop, wheels and Napalm canister,
  • Master's barrel and Aerobonus pilot.

More picture than talking I will... wan't to keep the odds in my favor to finish this GB in time.. :whistle:

 

So hope you'll enjoy and will start posting picture soon.

 

Quick and easy, that's my new mojo.

Want to do something different with the pit from my first one and most probably going to use either Eduard PE or Aires pit,

haven't made up my mind yet...

 

So did jump on the engine, and should be over this week-end with all the wire..

Hey thanks everyone, finally decide to stay in, still snowing (too much)  :mental:

and a lot warmer in my little shop....

 

So did finished my radial, it came along pretty nicely so far and a shame that the cowling will hide everything..
