The problem and the "solution"It wasn't pretty, I'd rather say it was ugly, but at least the machine doesn't fall over

The airbrake's house was completely empty. I tried to build in it and add a hidraulic pipe to it

Given the hurdles you had to overcome with this kit - it came out beautifully. The weathering is well executed. The only downside is someone seeing your build, and buying it thinking it was going to be a nice and detailed kit! 😜

Thanks the feedback CaptGPF! I don't want to scare anybody from this kit. If somebody has enough experince they can build a more impressive kit. But if somebody is beginner (or doesn't have enogh experience like me), they have better choice an Airfix kit for example.

Album info

It was a very difficult building, because, the Special Hobby's Sea Harrier FA.2 kit was very complicated for me. I made it from the box without any upgrade kits.
I reccomend it only for expert mates.

There aren't any fixing points on the kit, and it is problem mainly in the cockpit and when the pilons fix under the wings.
I couldn't adjust the angle of the wings and the fusalage that's why, the outrigger wheels become short. The front and the mainwheel and the airbrake house are lack or empty.
The decals were a horrible story, these were very thiny, broke up easily, somewhere I had to replace these by painting.

The instruction is not clear, because it is not show the details, and there are some mistakes. The biggest one is there where you have to fix the cockpit to the fuselage. I think the colors aren't correct too. You have to looking for a lot of information when you build this kit.
