Hello, here's my recently finished 1/72 Revell Handley Page Halifax B.III. I built straight from the box except the main wheels which seem to be undersized. They were replaced by resin items from Kora. As with most new Revell kits, this is a smooth & easy build. I encountered some fit issues with the engine cowlings, but this was probably my own making, as I had painted all parts before assembly. The tolerances here are so low that even the thin layer of paint was too much. Decals come from the box, representing a machine of (Canadian) 424. Squadronm Skipton-On-Swale, December 1944. Painted with acrylics from Gunze/Mr.Hobby. # The position lights come as clear parts; I drilled a small hole and added a dot of red and green paint with a sharpened toothpick. To represent the 'wear & tear' of the propeller blades, I used a soft pencil to pronounce the edges. The detail of the flame-daming exhausts is simply marvellous. Even though the undersides are Black, I tried to apply some 'pre-shading'. Here, it is faintly visible. Thanks for your interest! All photographs; Wolfgang Rabel, IGM Cars & Bikes, Vienna Have a great christmas time.... cheers! Roman- 43 replies
