This model was
built by Terry Sumner Jr. (TJ, as everyone knows me by). I'm
15 years old and on April 29th/2000, and I'm pleased to report this model won Best Junior Airplane with this model
at NorEastCon, the IPMS Region One Convention. The kit is the Arii/Otaki, built mostly out of the box.
I added new gun
barrels made from Hypodermic stainless steel tubing. I applied the
powder stains by scrubbing in some black pastel chalk dust into the flat top
coat with a special brush which has most of the fibers cut off.

I painted the
Razorback with Modelmaster enamels, added Aeromaster
decals, Testor's Dullcote and a little weathering of pastel chalks.
