1/144 BAC TSR-2 - Pit-Road (ref: SN06)
The ill fated TSR-2 (Tactical Strike Reconnaissance) project of mythical status.
Many of you will know of this aircraft and will need little reminding of this aura and mystique that surrounds this aircraft. Those of you who know little or nothing of this aircraft should read and learn......

I've got three on their way from HLJ!
ReplyDeleteI hope somebody makes a set of "what if" markings as has been done for 1:72 and 1:48 scales, or else I'll have to resort to using Tornado GR.1/4 decals.
Making a prototype would be a pain, painting white over that dark plastic. I've got the Wolfpack resin kit and I'll be using it to make a prototype as it's in white resin!
Can't wait to get them...

Correction:
ReplyDeleteThe parts seem to be in white plastic which would make more sense.

Correct the production sprues do seem to be white plastic as per the Hobbysearch link provided in the post, and repeated here
