Mid Franconian Uhmmm... may I say that I like this Marineflieger Tornado even more (than your previous EG1 ECR-Tornado)? Very nice! Do you have another Tornado in the pipe?

Marius Thank you so much everbody for the nice words. I really didn't expect it.
I have to admit, the bicolor paintjob of the MFG1 is my favorite from all Tornados ever (second place is the RAF desert pink). It has this delicate retro touch but in an attractive way.
@Mid Franconian: ooooh, you don't want to know what Tornado mania engulped me when I discovered these Revell kits. I initially bought this kitschy Tiger Meet 2018 edition kit as a joke when I was with a friend out. Little did I imagine what was about to come. I have managed to build 9 of them in almost one year, but one was a gift and never got the chance to be properly photographed. All of them are rather older ventures when I just came back to the hobby after 10 years of break so they are far from perfect. I am not particularly or equally proud of all of them. A few of them need a bit of rework.
I will post them soon, so be ready to be Tornado-spammed. You can check my gallery, since I already posted the third one from the initial MFG2 (before the fusion with MFG1). From the remaining 8 Tornados I still at home, 6 are German and 2 are RAF. I am planning a further German one (or two) and a Saudi one with the nice desert camouflage in three colors.

Mid Franconian Na dann... hau´s naus Deine Tornados!
I have the Tornado kit as Black Panther edition here... and the same Modeldecal sheet like you used. But I do not know what to make of it... a MFG1 like yours, a TTTE Tornado in Norm 76 or a classic Norm 83 (or is it Norm 81?) with a MW1 taken from the older ESCI/Italeri kit... so many choices. But the Revell kit is still a nice one I must say. I built it once back in 1998... time flies...
