Hi thanks for your feedback! There was a figure many years ago, but it sold out quickly & was expensive. I looked at the 1:16 SOL Bundeswehr tank commander (sol-mm312) & change heads. EBay had best options, at the time I got the 1:18 red colour figurine resin pilot (from Germany) & painted it the correct colours. There are also similar Luke Sywalker 1:18 figures that can be adapted with putty and paint. The other option is the 1:18 “figure of a jet fighter pilot” - it’s the top half (from UK). It’s a great build. Enjoy!
![WOW! This is a HUGE Scale Model [HobbyBoss 1:18 Scale AV-8B Harrier]](/img/1.gif)
Really nice build there. You did a good job on it.
Many thanks, glad you enjoyed!
@MrTigMilitaryModels Was there any major issues with the build like fit issues.
@zeroalpha7755 Hi, no the kit fit was excellent. Just a huge model, so takes lots of space while building & weathering.
Thanks for the well-edited video showing much of the level of detail involved with the kit. What if anything have you used for a pilot?
