Nice looking result Rich 
It's a bit of an ugly duckling the T10, but it certainly looks the business with that payload!

I'd agree, a real brute.
Lovely work, especially the finish - very sleek

Can any Harrier be described as pretty? She may not be the belle of the ball, but with a loadout like that I'm sure she won't be short of friends 
The kit was pretty good fit wise so the finish reflects that, it was just let down by the horrible decals and that blasted canopy!

I don't think you should be so hard on yourself Rich, it has turned out really good, well done!.
I did one of these a few years ago and did it in the two tone green colour but seeing the end result of yours has prompted me to build another using the grey, I really like how it looks this way.

I think grey really suits the Harrier, just looks right on her in all shades from the USMC light greys up to the dark RAF greys.
