Airfix 1/72 Martlet Mk IV


Recommended Posts

Hi All,

Just recently completed this kit and thought I'd share it with you guys. The kit was alright but was rather annoying in some places especially when joining the two fuselage halves which left a rather large gap which could have just been me, once the gaps had been filled the rest of the build went well and it was finished in my usual fashion with Vallejo Model Air paints. However for the first time I tried doing an oil wash instead of using Tamiya panel line accent colour which I think turned out alright. Constructive criticism is very much welcome! :) 

(I know the aerial wire is rather on the thick side but its some temporary stretched sprue until I can find a better alternative)

And now a comparison to the same aircraft I painted up over a year ago

Very good indeed. Your paintwork has come on leaps and bounds - if that doesn't sound too patronising! :lol:

 

 

Thank you! :)

Nice work, the word pugnacious springs to mind when I look at it.
