Monogram 1/48 Hawker Harrier

I’ve got an oil wash done in the cockpit and have started on more detail painting...



I have some instrument decals on the way for the IP.

Tom, I have seen a couple of these kits on eBay yesterday in case you want one...

Yeah, looking for the AV-8B Harrier so I can build it as Boyington’s Bastards squadron of the USMC.

Cockpit look nice, Carlos.

[Stikpusher]

Thanks John. A couple more sessions and I’ll get it all wrapped up inside.

Tom, there are plenty of Bs available in 1/48. I did mine in Tomcats markings from the 91 Gulf War.

[BlackSheep214]

Yeah, I know there are. Do you have a good recommendation for 1/48 scale “B” Harrier? I know I’m going to look in scalemates sites and see their reviews.

[Stikpusher]

If you don’t mind raised panel lines, the Monogram kit is excellent for the original type. For the Night Attack or Harrier Plus the Hasegawa kit is great.

I have the Hasegawa AV-8B Harrier II+ in the stash.

[Stikpusher]

I’m still working in the cockpit here....

Finished up the ejection seat



and I started adding the Airscale instrument decals to the panel



The IP decals are going to be something of a slow process...

Great to see this hit the bench Carlos - and looking good thus far.

I'll be interested to see how this compares to the Airfix GR.3 I have in the stash.

[BlackSheep214]

Looking good, Carlos.
I’m surprised you didn’t look into Yuhu IP. They look fantastic.
