Glenn R Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Hi All, Here's another one of my recent builds, the old Revell 1/32 Harrier, converted to its 'grandfather' the Hawker P1127. At first glance, I thought this was going to be an easy conversion - wrong. Virtually everything had to be changed in some way and I've ended up with a model that is at least 30% epoxy putty!

Jack Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 man oh man, i really like your Kestrel and Dual Harrier, both have always been one of my favourite projects, but i knew the Kestrel to be a tough job, as it is indeed as you said completely different from what lateron would be the Harrier..... But this is very very inspiring to get going with the old Revell conversion. thanks for sharing these pictures, cheers, jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oliver Hi Oliver, As you requested, here are a few. The basic parts. Note, the fuselage has been shortened by 9 scale inches. The other changes begin with the intakes and exhaust fairings. The 'Dumbo' intakes. Modified nosewheel. Have a look at part two. Glenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
