Nice one Peter. Has anyone noticed how we seem to gravitate towards Harrier a fair bit here?

Well your chap seems to be sitting comfortably. A different story with my pilot I'm afraid. In the sea Harrier kit I get a different seat and instrument panel, but the same pilot. Which means I've had to chop chunks out of him to get him in, poor sod. I'm also quite surprised at the lack of decent colour photos from the early 80's. Trying to detail my man has been a bit of a pain.

Nice pilot and office Peter.

You're going fast, do you want to be the first to complete?

Stick with it, it will look great when it's done. It's a 1:24 Harrier - there's nothing else like it.....
