One short final update before i wrap up this build. The Shar is now finished and ready to attch to the base. I just gave it a light flory wash and the final mat coat, then adde stores, canopy and the final bits. For the canopy i used the PE Det cord which came with the Eduard PE. I atached this to the inside useing future and i much prefer this over the decal i used on the GR.9.

And i also finished the F59 tractor. This is a nice litle kit. It is missing some markings, namely the brand name of the company that makes it.

And i have just noticed that little chip in the yellow behind the door, so will touch that up.

So, i just need to add some RBF tags and fit this all to the base, and sort out a figure. Should be done by next weekend.

Nice Harrier! Great complement to the other build. And that tractor is pretty darn cool!
