    Fernando's Trumpeter 1/48 RA-5C Vigilante (Rons reconnaissance Group build)

    Hi everyone,

    Here are the completed pics of my Vigilante, took a bit more time 6 instead of the allotted 3 months…
    Not the easiest of kits to build but if you want one in this scale, break out the putty:tongue-out3:.
    Added Aires cockpit, wheel well and burner can sets, some wires for the hydraulics, superscale set for the markings, modified the wing roots and finished in Vallejo paints with Ammo washes.

    Still, love the mach 2 shape and she’s a great looker to add to the shelves :smiling4: .

            That does look very nice. It's not an aircraft or model I'm familiar with, always nice to see something different.

                    Thank you too John, training schedule for my first marathon takes up most of my spare time, 5 times a week a run.
                    With less than 4 weeks to go and then it’s the start of the Rotterdam marathon, hopefully after that I can turn back to a bit more moggling…:nerd:
