grant_3250 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Revell ‘Henry J’ 1984 kit. Painted in Tamiya Mica Red and Tamiya clear. Decals from AMT ‘Lil Viky’ Kit. I’m pretty happy with how it’s turned out considering the kits poor reviews and difficulty. Constructive criticism welcomed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris in Berwyn Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Looks good! I sorta feel like building those is a modeling rite of passage as it is such a classic kit. I should build one. Great color! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sledsel Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Finicky old kit, but you did a great job on it. I have one in my stash, and Chris is right, it is a rite of passage to successfully build one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake45 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Probably one of the better builds I've seen of this wretched kit. Well done and model on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 You did a great job on what I consider to be a tough kit . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TarheelRick Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Really like the looks of this one, Gassers rule. I also have one in the stash and have been avoiding it because of the issues I have heard. One quick question: how do you slow this beast down? I see a "Go" pedal but no "Whoa" pedal.

I've always had a soft spot for the subject, but the kit needs a lot of extra work if you want a really nice model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unclescott58 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Another good looking “J”. So there hope with the newest reissue that it can be built into a decent looking model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zippi Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Yeah Grant did a great job on this build. Looks nice. I have the new release on hold at my local hobby shop with they come in. I'm in no big hurry to get one but when it comes in I'll have one waiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
