Daniel Iscold Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 (edited) Did not use nose correction made by Barracuda. This beast fought me all the way. I wish to thanks Mr. Chuck Sawyer, for his precious pictures of his build, they helped me a lot during this build, and where a great inspiration. Revell decals are great (printed by Cartograf I think). The roundels are painted using homemade masks. Eduard PE to make the office a little bit busier, home made seat belts using spare PE seatbelt buckles. The pitot tube is made from steel tubes. Hope you like my model fellas.

dennismcc Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 That looks great, nicely finished and just enough weathering for my taste. Plus it is an ever so impressive subject. Cheers Dennis Martinnfb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozart Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 (edited) As the cognoscenti have said, that’s a fine looking Tempest indeed. I’m no expert on the marque at all but it LOOKS like a Tempest from spinner tip to tail trim tab to my eyes, Barracuda nose or not! Well done, super job.

chuck540z3 Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 (edited) Very nicely done! I really like your subtle chipping around the cowling panels. "This beast fought me all the way" Yup. All the parts look so nice on the sprues until you try to fit them together. Having said that, it can turn into a pretty impressive model, as you have accomplished here.
