Latest out of the hanger is this build of Italeri's aging Tornado. Upgraded to GR4 with the fitting of a resin FLIR i cast up. Aftermarket decals and some cobbled together seat harnesses finish the job.
painted using Xtracrylix for everything but the tail. This was Tamiya X-1 thinned with MR Color self levelling thinners.

Can't do much better than that! Light weathering and panel line highlighting are excellent! I dunno if you waxed the canopy or what, but it's so clear it looks incredibly thin. Superior work!

I'm tempted to say 'show off'....but that's jealousy talking.
Although my model fix is cars, I have built quite a few aircraft in my time,
but those are fantastic.
....I'm going off to cry now!
