Title: Aussie Panther
Post by: tc2324 on June 05, 2012, 09:13:59 PM

A couple of pics of a finished model that originally was going to be a real world build of an VF-111 example for my collection.

Hated the kit so much that I whiffed it into this and I`ll restart my VF-111 one once I get my hands on a better kit.

A Panther with the Australian Navy during the last stages of the Korean War. Lend leased from the United States, they remained in service until the introduction of the DH Sea Venom.

Added the `Sharks Mouth` to spice it up a bit and I`m reasonably happy with scheme. Still a little upset at the kit though...!!

Yowsa that's hot! Love the RAN scheme and few things spice up a project like those 'roos!

Being a fan of 50's planes (and armor, ships, cars), am liking Panther build much.   :)
