Royal Navy Sea Harrier FRS.1 Tamiya 1/48 61026

This is a video of my build of the Tamiya Royal Navy Sea Harrier FRS.1 (item number 61026) in 1/48 scale. The finished aircraft is at the end of the video.
The kit features raised panel lines which is something I haven’t seen in a while and speaks to the age of the kit. It took a little more time to work around these lines to preserve the details and was satisfied with how the model turned out.

Great build, but maybe the blueGrey seems too dark

Thanks for dropping by and leaving a comment. I mixed the color and agreed, the shade was darker than expected.
