Sorry folks had to hold off on modelling as Sal(my wife) is being Induced today.
Hopefully well get the decent extension I've asked for in the sign up and chat thread otherwise they'll have to be moved to the VTOL SB.

OK a bit of an update at last!
I've been working on the 3 Harriers I've got on the go in building stage at the moment.
Due to the way the new GR.9 goes together with the horizontal stabilizers being added before paint I'm going to swap the 2 kits around to make it easier so ZD464 will now be the Old Tool kit and the Armistice Harrier will now be the New Tool kit.

So the bodies of both have been built, I've attempted to transfer a set of ferry tips onto 741 and I think it went well for my standards!
The cockpit, air intakes and nose section have been added to 464 along with the final under the right side of the fuselage (I can assume this is the water vent in real steel?)
464 is more or less built with just a little sanding required around the tail boom and nose.
Here is a pic of were I am with these girls at the moment:

From left to right:
XV741 GR.1 "Racer Harrier"
ZD327 GR.9 "Armistice Harrier"
ZD464 GR.7 "Wet Harrier"

Right I know I've been stalled on these but I will attempt a quick finish on one of these ladies.
The plan:
I will attempt to finish all 3 by the 31st.
The Fujimi GR.1 and Old tooled GR.9 will still be as planned but the New Tooled GR.9 will be going into the all over Green seen at the 1995 RIAT.

Excellent, it's good to see you back, Adam. Hopefully you'll be able to finish up at least one of these Harriers, all three would be marvellous!
