That is all she wrote for the Harrier! We are finished!

Ben Builds Season Five: Hawker Harrier Gr Mk. 7 Part 13

Hello everyone! This is the final week of this group build and I am so close. I will be creating two videos this week, so I can get this one done by the due date, but I should be right on target.



Here is where my kit stands as of today. I spent some time this weekend applying the gloss coat and the decals to the Mk7 and I love how it looks. The only things that will be left are the weathering stage and the flat topcoat. Friday should be the reveal video and the end of my build and I am excited to see this one come to life!



We are almost there, everyone! Good luck with your kits, stay strong and happy building!

I decided I needed more #TwinBrit. So, instead of just cramming the last few steps into one long video, I thought I would split up the rest of the build into two short videos. That way, it will be easier on the viewers to enjoy the final few steps. So here we go!



I was able to finally get to the painting stage on my Beaufighter. I used both Tamiya and Gunze paints and mixed up a few custom colors. The underside is a custom Azure Blue. I used my own mix of white, light blue and a dash of purple. For the topside, I stuck with Sand Yellow and a mix of 50/50 Flat Earth and Red Brown. then I did some post shading with Tamiya Smoke, some slight fading with Buff and Flat Earth and a topcoat of Future.



This is really falling together now and I am super pleased at how it is coming along. Next episode should be the decals, weathering and the final reveal.



Thank you so much for watching! I really appreciate all of the views and well wishes and I hope you all enjoy!
