I first made one of these when it came in a plastic bag in the late 60s. The mouldings look reasonable. I'll see how it goes together. The fuselage mouldings look new.
Now that's a blast from the past.

I can't remember having built this one, I know I built the Harrier G.R.1(?) when it first came out. That was a chunky model and I still have the rocket pods in my spares. Looking forward to seeing this built.
This build is going fairly quick. Most of it done.
Amazing progress after 7even days. Lightning quick work by my standards. I'm impressed.
Well there are few parts and simple to put together.
There were only 20 pieces to the He178V-1 and that took a lot longer than a week. In fact it was about ten days to get the fuselage closed up. So I continue to be impressed by your rapid progress.
Now ready for decals. Aluminium over black goes on well.
Very good finish Chris
Great build of an old kit.
Here it is complete. Only 50 parts or so; the mouldings are not brilliant but probably better than the first one I attempted back in the late 60s early 70s. The paint finish is better.
The model represents one of the first prototypes which is now in tne Brooklands Air Museum.
Nice clean job.
Great job Chris.
Nice!
Haddock.
very nice.
Thanks. Best viewed from a distance.
Ah, you can't beat the good old '6ft rule'. I use it all the time, lol!!!
