Hey I love those action shots

Looking good.

Oh yes, I also like to see a good action shot from the Basement Lab I must admit that I'm quite lazy when it comes to U/C doors and antennae and generally brush paint them if I've forgotten to airbrush them on the sprues whilst the main airframe was being painted - which is often the case and generally I tend to notice just after I've finished cleaning the airbrush I can't be bothered setting up the airbrush etc for one or two small parts even though that sometimes risks spoiling the ship for a ha'porth of tar.

The paint mix is with Vallejo Air paints which don't brush very well, so AB is the way to go.

Even less action tonight, I sprayed the other side of the doors with dark grey primer!

I blame the cost of Postman Pat's stunt double for the lack of action.

Undercarriage door painted dark blue this morning and fitted this afternoon.



The tyres also got painted

Just a few little vanes and scoops to fit now...

Cheers

Really good Andrew.

And the Blue Harrier is finished (apart from one of the undercarriage doors which fell off during the photo shoot

Photos later when Photobucket cooperates!

Which it is doing now...

Looks nice in the blue scheme.

Another nice one - it looks brilliant Andrew and a very different scheme from the norm.

Great to see this one finished Andrew and it looks to be a good 'un.

Ok folks 2 more Harriers have arrived!
Matchbox FRS.1 and Hasegawa GR.3.
Both will go into Royal Navy colours.
I know the GR.3 never served in the Navy but they did have 1.

Has this SB ended or has anyone got anymore pics or updates for us?

I think this particular one has finished, but you could try for another. Plenty of people like Harriers

Cheers
