Hola, I'm eager to see where you take this model to, given such a great start!

Thanks, friends. I will start painting it as soon as the covid allows me to go out to the model shop to buy paints. If someone has paint references about the saudi colors, it would be great!

Oooooh! The Saudi Tornado. It's probably the best camo any Tornado put on.
Great work on the office! Looking forward to the painting phase!

I agree with Maciej... Unfortunately there are few decal options available in the aftermarket for this deco.
Get well soon Augustín!

I will use the Bilek decals. I have never used this brand before. Any feedback about them?

Take care Agustin
And if you can not go to the shop, get the shop to send it to you! 😉

@Agustin: re paint reference.
I have still got a copy of the colour references from the (sadly now defunct) "Don Color" website for the Saudi Tornado.
It gives the following:
BSC 381 C: 361 Light Stone
BSC 381 C: 450 Dark Earth
BSC 381 C: 649 Dark Green
How reliable this is, I cannot say. But it is perhaps a start. 🙂

I need the help of a Tornado expert. Those underwing tanks look like the standard 1500 l tank, but with two extra fins. Anyone can give me a reference for them? Thanks.

Hi Augustin, what a great start of this project! The fuel tanks are the standard early RAF-variant, totally fne for an early RSAF Tornado GR.1.

Thank you, Mirko. All the photos I had found of the RAF tanks had 2 fins, but now I have checked on internet and I found both types, with 2 and with 4 fins. Thanks again!
