'Sup fellow nerds!
This was a long hard slog for me - I started this in september, and just finished tonight :-\
To be perfectly honest I really struggled with this kit and as such it didnt go together too well. Looking forward to something much easier (like the TIE i posted the other day - which happened to be an interlude to this build.)
She's modelled on ZD404 - one of the harriers famously visited by 2 rather nice ladies named Lucy Pinder and Michelle Marsh on a morale boosting mission to afghanistan. I liked the nose art so I got the Model Alliance decals for operation herrick. I originally intended to model the loadout accurately with some resin weapons and the TIALD pod but ended up just popping the sidewinders on there and saving my cash for more kits - so forgive me for the fictitious loadout. ;D
Otherwise she's completely OOTB. Oh, and a pilot I stole from a Phantom C/D i had in the stash, and hacked up a bit.
But enough rambling - here it is warts an'all. I still learned a lot building it and got to try out a few new techniques.
PS - sorry again for the crap pics - I still need to buy a decent camera.
