Gloster Javelin 1/48


Recommended Posts

Good afternoon everyone,time for my latest completed build for your views.

 

Here we have the 1/48 airfix gloster javelin built out of the box,no added extras.As usual everything is brush painted including cockpit.

Kit was nice to build,good fitting nice detail the only one small downside was the decals which a couple just didnt want to stay down,which leads to the big problem with the build.As you no doubt notice my tail flash decals are rubbish,the large flag over the tail went on and as i moved it it split about 10mm.I knew if i tried to move it it would only get worse so i left it where it is,too high which meant the banner has been shortened.

 

All comments welcome.

I had similar troubles with the decals on my build of this kit, which is otherwise a fantastic thing to build straight out of the box. Despite the grief you had, still plenty to admire in this beauty!

Brilliant build and excellent paint job, especially by brush!

Congrats!!!

Shame about the decals having an attitude problem. Life is definitely unfair.

Great show
