Thanks Nathan, Yea, its going to be extra dark sea grey with white undersides. I have another which will be done in Falklands scheme.

I'm doing mine in a Falklands scheme and was going to buy another but then I saw they were doing a GR.1 so I'm saving the second project for that one. Here's hoping it has the lengthened nose 🙂

if its a gr1.. shouldnt have.. however depending then with a T4 kit, you might be able to make one as that has the LRTMS nose.

Its not too bad Nathan, Intakes were a mutt.. they dont fit properly so needed some tweaking.. noose needed some fettling as did the wing to fueslage..
Fit wise, I think the Ole' monogram Av-8a / GR1 is better 🤔

I have found that some of the newer kits can be a bit over-complicated. Some for no reason at all. I understand when they want to make 5 variants, but geez...

Yeah, but this is on bits that are fairly generic across the family.. thats where its just odd.

It still is looking good Aug's even with the fit issues you describe.

That you do. The RF-101B is finished, finally. I will get some pictures up tomorrow I hope. The F-5F is ready for primer.
