Geoffrey Abreu Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Just recently completed this Airfix 1/48 Mk. XIX. I used model master paints throughout except for the spinner which was Alclad. I used the Barracuda studios snapshot cockpit set, prop, exhausts, wheels carb intake and the sliding portion from the vac form canopy. The model was weathered with oils, pastels and silver pencil. I hope you like it. Last photo shows it next to its 1/72 scale twin! 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob85 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Well that is rather flipping stunning! Love the finish you have on the overall blue makes it stand out and look slightly varied. Beautiful is the word that fits best Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoffrey Abreu Posted April 20, 2015 Author Share Posted April 20, 2015 Thank you for all the positive comments! Unfortunately the day after posting pictures I had to go to the hospital for a bit of emergency surgery. It is nice to be back home and read all of your comments. The one good thing that came out of it is I will have a bit of extra time to model while recovering over the next couple of weeks. Thanks Again, Geoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
