After working slowly on a 1/32 Viper for the past couple of months, I had the overwhelming urge to finish something. So this week I built Tamiya's 1/48 Sea Harrier. It is a pretty simple kit, and I built it out of the box in what must be record time for me. This is also the first kit I've used an airbrush on. I use Tamiya acrylics. Now it's back to the F-16 for a few more months. :-)

That's a nicely finished paint job Grant. I've built one of these things and had real problems masking inside the air intakes. You seem to have done it well.
How did the Tamiya acrylics airbrush? Any problems with the airbrush tip clogging?
