I'm working a full-on styrene induced chub after those pics.   :wub:  :wub:

Holy hannah that's sweet.

Three things occur to me looking at the new pics:

1.  Awesome

2.  Please dont spoil it with run-of-the-mill RAF camouflage.  INvent something new to go with this machine!

3.  With the canopy masked and painted your model looks like one hell of a UCAV!
So I got that going for me...which is nice....

I'm eager to see that paint come to life. That looks very good and it seems to"suit" that bird nicely. B) Cool name also. :)

Now now, don't be blaming all of us just because you're acting like Baz, leigh or Eddie !

Blame them !

At first, I thought Tornado something would be a good name, either II or Super or somat. But now, seeing how different she actually is, Cyclone fits the bill perfectly.

I also like your idea of the sand colour, with all those metal bits showing underneath, as if she were really rode hard.......like the birds from the first Gulf War.

Cheers !

CANADA KICKS arse !!!!

Long Live the Commonwealth !!!
Vive les Canadiens !

Blue camo? Unusual, but it looks very nice.

Gorgeous cammo scheme.

Great colors, I'd love to see it on the model.

Well, it sure is a heck of a lot tougher to paint a model than it is to do a mock-up on the computer! That said here it is the finished Cyclone. I am pleased with the overall look but man do I need more practice.

Very nice! The Tornado certainly looks different without that huge fin, and the paint job looks just as good on the model as on your drawing.

Wow, that thing looks awesome, now that is how i would picture a super tornado upgrade beyond 2015. Excelent work  ^_^

I truly enjoy looking at this model. It just looks lethal. The bad guys get one look at that and they'll think twice about any monkey business! Outstanding work. Brazo Zulu! B)
