Lightning F6 1/72


Recommended Posts

My latest completion the Airfix 1/72 Lightning F6, almost completely OOB the only addition being a Pavla seat to replace the kit item, the kit went together without

any problems, finished as a Lightning from the Lightning Training Flight, I chose it as I have seen the real aircraft thundering down the runway at Bruntingthorpe

a number of times always impressive and LOUD.

 

anyway enjoy C and C welcome.

I look forward to building this kit. Fantastic work! What color did you use for the top?

I used Xtracrylix XA1004 RAF Dark Sea Grey for the top, brush painted thinned with windscreen wash

For brush painted you've got a lovely finish on there

Nice clean and sharp build , very well done.

Must get mine started but with so many attractive schemes to chose from. . .

Absolutely fantastic looking Lightning.  Looks so crisp and perfect.  Impressive that you've brush painted it as well, very nicely done.

 

I was going to ask about the paint as well but noticed that it's already been answered.
