Two excellent Harriers Bish! I agree the PE detcord looks way better than the decal.

Looking very sharp Bish! I can’t wait to see it on a base!

Thanks guys. Duke, i can recomend them.

Time to wrap up the Shar. I added some RBF tags and a single figure which is from a Hasegawa USAF set just painted in RN uniform. Again, figures are what lets these 72nd dio's down. I wanted to add a ladder but the Eduard one was so fragile it just broke up as i was trying to build it. So i ordered a couple fo set of the Brengun ladders. These has 2 in each set so means i could also add one to the GR.9 and have another pair for my Hunter and another Harrier. Much easier to build. I also have a set of chocks under the rear wheels.

This aircraft was based at RNAS Yeovilton in 2006.

And this 2nd Harrier is perhaps my favorite one!

The diorama looks very nice!
