Andrea Manfroi Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Hello fellow modellers, Last summer I had a chance to buy my firs Airfix kit since more that 25years and I have to say I have been positively impressed. Really nothing to do with the old stuff I used to buy when I was a boy. The Defiant kit is nicely detailed and quite easy to build even if the turret requires a bit of patience. As usual for me it is an OOB with just little additional details like belts, some wiring etc. Paint has been done using airbrush and Tamiya acrylics with Tamiya spray cans for finishing. Any comment or suggestion is always welcome. Enjoy pictures. Cheers, Andy 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorby Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Very nice. I like the grubby, well used look. It's a kit I'd like to build at some point and if it turns out as well as yours, I'll be well pleased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wez Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Andy, Fabulous Defiant which belies the title of the thread which suggests your model plainly is anything BUT that. I think you've got the weathering just right, brilliant job, well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzby061 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Very nicely done, weathering is spot on. I built one last year, it's a great kit. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
