Johns Hasegawa SR-71 Blackbird

Post by Aliktren »

Thanks firstly to ISM, without whom I would probably never have made an eggplane, I had some motivation and technical issues with this build resulting in another can of something entering the bin after quite a few issues with the finish and therefore silvering, grr, but despite that, I am pleased with it.

All painted with Tamiya Paints, and finished with MIG Matt Varnish (which is very nice), a great kit from Hasegawa with lovely, easy to apply decals.

Hope you enjoy :shifty:

thanks for watching, and well done to all the other finishers, some amazing awe inspiring work out there.
