I started the Eduard (Revell) Tornado ADV for a GB elsewhere. Lots of PE and resin in the kit. Just started adding PE to the cockpit.

I’m in! I have a thing for the Tornado. I’ve built a few Revell IDS and GR. 4 kits, they are not easy but the end is worth it. They’re a just too many good schemes. I like the black tail option, I went with this same scheme on a British F-4 I built and it turned out killer. Good luck with the build and I’ll be looking in on this one!

Great to see back on here Nathan! You'll have to get a thread going and show us those Tornado and F-4 builds dude.  |

Really Revell? Really? Sink marks on this piece?  |

It's part of the tail. The back part is an ECM antenna.  |

Now that engineering has me wondering why they designed the part in such a manner…

Hard to believe that kits still have ejector pin marks and sink marks like that in very noticeable places.

These newer released kits are in competition in regard to gaining the appeal of modelers. No appeal....no sales. There's plenty of manufacturers out there now who get it right in this area. |

And this is really the best kit of the Tornado out there. Yeah there's the Hobby Boss kits (serious shape issues) and the Italeri kits (buy LOTS of putty) but they're not great. I wish someone would do a better kit of the Tornadoes. |
