1/48 Hasegawa AV-8B Harrier II Plus
This commission built was for a client who is a former Harrier pilot. I used Quinta Studio's 3-D decals for the cockpit, Meng Missiles, Eduard Brassin' JDAM bombs, and Caracal Decals to represent VMA-214 aircraft # 2. This aircraft was then mounted in a display case with the base detailed as a section of flight deck from an LHD class carrier using Inifini's brass tie down points. This was an enjoyable build for a fellow veteran.
All the details and photos from start to finish are in the build log at: https://davidsscalemodels.com/build-log/av-8b-harrier-plus-vma-214/
Very nice build David, your client must be satisfied with it. As to the kit, I have the same on my bench at the moment... its been fun with a few quarks in fitment here and there.
Well done. Love the base
