72modeler Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 ToT, Another superb build! She's a LOT bigger twin than your Hampden, right mate? Keep 'em coming! You are a master with the hairy stick, as you UK types are fond of saying. Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapam Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Excellent work! The Hasegawa kit waits patiently in my stash and your build is very inspiring! If mine were to get anywhere close to yours (brush-painted no less!!) I'd be a happy man. Well done! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josip Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Its very rare to se a SAF bird. The model itself is pretty good, but there are a couple of visible flaws that need rectifying. - a very noticable canopy seam - misaligned tail guns Josip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meatbox8 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Another superb job, Tony. I've been minded to build an RAF or SAAF Marauder for some time. Great inspiration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stuck with the original B Type just in case. Although the RAF did not fit the cheek pack guns to its Marauder`s (14 Sqn- Mk.I & 39 Sqn-Mk.III,...plus training units) the SAAF did fit the lower guns on each side of the fuselage, only deleting the upper pair. The model was brush painted using Humbrol 155 Olive Drab and Aeromaster Neutral Grey acrylics with Medium Green blotches and as the airfields in Italy were notably muddy I have weathered up the wheels using MiG pigment powders . The model represents B-Bliksem (Bliksem being an Aafrikaan`s word for `Lightning') which flew with 21 Sqn. SAAF from Italy in 1944/45; . Here are the Xtradecal decal instructions; Cheers Tony I like it very much. Alain 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
