Popular Post gazza l Posted April 8, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 8, 2018 Hi all, Just finished this kit which I thoroughly enjoyed building, it all went together without any real problems and I have to say, although not to everyone's taste, I really like the surface riveting. I added all the missing aerials and added and removed the necessary ducts, filled the incorrect window in the rear fuselage and added the small window under the horizontal stabilizer. Eduard's resin wheel set was added and I replaced the towel rail aerial and the one under the chin with nickel plated Micro tube... much better scale. Painted with Xtracolor enamels and finished with mixture of Alclad gloss and semi sheen cote. Thanks for looking, all C&C welcomed, gazza l 112 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goggsy Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Great job, really lovely work. I so prefer what Revell did with this kit to the Airfix version. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Riot Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Lovely Shack that! I built this one a few months ago, it's a great kit in my opinion. I don't have the Airfix one but I'm not sure it could be any better than this! I remember blocking a window and adding a couple of aerials, etc, but where was the extra window you added!? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
