Currently at the 'painted but nowhere near finished' stage - the above Sea Harrier FA2 in 1/72 scale. It just needs all the additional bits and bobs such as landing gear, jet nozzles, airbrake and underwing stores attaching. Once the interior is finished in terms of detailing the canopy will be glued in place and then the finishing touches of decals can be applied.
Currently at the 'finished and soon to go to a new home stage' - the Harrier GR7 using the older Airfix tooling with raised panel lines. The overall shape and finish of the model has still ended up looking pretty good - with the advantage of some additional markings such as the shark's teeth noseart.
Also on the go - but having virtually nothing to do with Naval Aviation - this Tamiya Kampfpanzer in 1/35 scale. This was testing the use of acrylics used via airbrush.
Most of my models (99.9% of them) are painted with enamel paints and either hand-painted, airbrushed, spray-painted with cans or a mixture of all three. I used some automotive spray paint to undercoat the model black - then slowly built up layers of green with the airbrush to get a sort of post-shaded effect of lighter/darker areas. This was using Vallejo Model Air - shot straight through the airbrush with no thinning. It is currently in the process of being lightly weathered, hence why the wheels and tracks are missing.
Finally on the go, this 1/72 Harrier GR3 finished in 1982 Falklands colours - currently (as of writing this) on a certain auction site and hopefully soon to go to a new home.
Once these have been finished off - it will then be time for something a bit bigger...
