Ah the original Harrier! Very nicely done! And that is a new molding/new tool kit? Sweet!

Very nice, Owl!
I've done a couple too (later versions)...only real trouble spot with them has been the fit of the little inlet part around the intake...otherwise, quite decent, and a great bang for the buck!

Now that's a tiny bird in '72, just around 10cm!
Well done micro work, Owl.

Thank you!!
This is one of the first models I've been able to complete since I moved in April... It feels good to be back at the bench!
