Vulcan XJ783 - Airfix 1:72


Recommended Posts

Hello britmodellers.

 

This is my Airfix 1:72 Avro Vulcan that I completed a while ago. I used Wolfpack seamless intakes and their detail set. The raised panel lines were sanded off and rescribed. Paints are Humbrol enamels. Weathering was done with a 6B pencil, artist oil and pigments, but I guess the panel line weathering is a bit on the strong side. Decals are from the exhaustive fundekal sheet.

I wonder if it is possible to tone it down a bit since you used pencil etc?

Looking at this pic there are just a few lines visible.

Each to their own I guess, I really quite like the weathering, just because a photo doesn't show it that grubby doesn't mean it can't be. Also nice to see a different reg as 558 has worn itself through the floor boards and then some. I have the Wolfpack K.2 conversion and it's nice to see some of the bits that are included with it in your build. What can I say I love a Vulcan! Grea stuff
