Jonathan Mock Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Not to standard of Mike Grant's superlative model, this build stems from 1990 when the kit was reissued and was made STFB. I love the Bird Dog and it's a subject I keep meaning to revisit as there are some excellent schemes and small conversions.Gary Byk's article in Airfix Magazine in the 70s is an excellent source of information on the RAAF versions. http://i719.photobucket.com/albums/ww195/jonathanmock/DSCF8746_zps3luwb0hb.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Grant Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Thanks Jonathan, but no comparisons necessary – I doubt that even if I did still have some built models from 25 years ago, they'd look any better than your Bird Dog. Lovely, straightforward build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Mock Posted December 29, 2015 Author Share Posted December 29, 2015 Thanks Mike, I know I have better airbrushes and paints that have helped me (hopefully) improve technique and finishes, so I need to go back and see how I could finish that kit 25 years later.
