Title: Empire test pilots ef 2000 1/48
Post by: Haemon on August 21, 2020, 04:33:13 PM

Olla Again all,

this came from a Clave inspired profile. kit was the revell Eurofighter twin seater in 1/48. Not as bad a fit as i was expecting based on reviews but the canopy was a pig.

the kit comes with so much ordnance that it felt almost criminal not to hang some bang bits off it but it just didn't seem top fit the scheme.

i am working my way through a backlog of half finished, finished stuff and "eh close enough" stuff.
