Halifax Mark II, DG221 'EY-A', of No. 78 Squadron


Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

This model was built (some years ago now) out of the box with no attempt to change the engines and knowingly aware of the kit's issues. Possibly if I were making the kit now I would address the issues but that being said I am quite happy with the result...anyway, here it is.

 

The Halifax has been painted as DG221 'EY-A' of 78 Squadron flown by W/C Tait on operations against Genoa, 23rd October 1942

 

I hope you like it,

 

Russ

Lovely work Russ!

Tiny vertical tails, bonkers bulbous dorsal turret, massive plank like wings, awfully complicated nose... Yep she's a ripper early Halifax for sure!

 

I must admit to a capital offence heresy in that I prefer the old Halibag to the other other* four engine BC heavy... :winkgrin:

*Not the Stirling, I like Stirlings too!
