Nice work!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Thanks guys!

It's funny to look through the book and see how "beat up" the actual jet is. All over the fuselage there are dents and panels that don't quite line up.

I know we kind of get caught up in the whole idea that everything on these old aircraft are perfect.
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

Following. I love the look of Intruder and prowler. I have the Kinetic kit in the stash. I did the old Monogram Intruder ages ago
Thanks,
John

I've really begun to notice that in most military aircraft. They're not meant to be pretty but to get the job done.

If you look at those pics that I posted from the book, you can see what I'm walking about. And it's like that all over the jet.

Right side of the fuselage is done. Completely rescribed and cleaned up. The left side is rescribed now but needs the rivets and to be cleaned up.

Thanks! I feel kinda accomplished with this one. Normally I would have left those erroneous panels that stood out. But I've gotten better skill wise and was able to remove them without screwing up the kit. Did the second one just now.
