Hi everyone This is my 1/72 Merlin HC.3 by Italeri. This was a beautifully detailed kit of a beautiful aircraft. The panel line where nice and it had realistic raised rivets covering most of the model apart from the underside. It had a Very nice fit and required barely any filler. The inside was lacking detail, so I created the texture on the walls out of an old metal takeaway container. I created the texture by running the back of the hobby knife to create small lines. I painted it in RC027 Forest green. The decals conformed well to details and where nice and thin. I decided to buy AK panel liner and odourless thinner to try weathering with oil paints. This attempt went better than last time when my thinner removed the pain. I then sealed it in a matt varnish. Thanks for looking

G'day people, I would like to know what colour the interior cabin lighting is fot the Merlin HC.3. I would expect that white light is used but is there also red or green lighting available as well and if yes, is the light source from the same light fixtures? I have the 1/48 Airfix kit and I am thinking of adding some LED lights. The kit provides the cabin walls and roof as separate items to the fuselage. The cabin roof has three internal light fittings {plus what looks like an external light over the ramp area}, are they the only light sources fot the cabin? I would like to use a red or green light if possible, cheers, Pappy

Its been a long time since Ive posted! Heres a 1/72 Italeri Merlin HC3. Ive done this out of the box as a 78sqn Merlin operating in Afghanistan as part as Op Herrick. This is my first rotary build and found it interesting as the build method is totally different to how I do the usual fast jets!
