I’m not really a jet type person, but I have built a couple revell ones in 1/48, and those connections really can be iffy. Those external stores are nice looking! Always my favorite part, putting on the bombs, tanks, rockets, missiles, radar pods, or what have you. Been a while for an update with this. I hope to see another one soon!

Hey Spiros, it does seem like the contact point of the main strut within the gear bay may not be the best to keep a quite large and heavy Tornado. Especially overtime sitting on the shelf. And withstand any handling in the future. Good to see some progress as well.

Spiros, have a tasking order ready for your Tornado once you get it finished.

Have to start reading this entire thread, Spiros @fiveten.
Looking at the current progress, I'm happy that you started to finish this one.
This will be an awesome MiG eater.

Ah nice to see the Tornado back in the shop under construction. Fire up the glue, grab a paint brush, don't forget the sandpaper and files. Shape up a grand Tornado Spiros. And lets see it till the end. A bit of Inspiration.

Filling/sanding sessions...

Good progress, Spiros @fiveten
Filling and sanding is not my favorite part but unfortunately sometimes required.
