Defiant - Airfix - 1/72


Recommended Posts

Beautiful painting! I have resisted for years to buy the old tool Defiant, and I am glad I did. This is really a kit worth building.

 

Congrats!

Thank you! The new tooling is excellent. The decals are very good too.

The decals look indeed very good. I take it that the lighter blue on the tail flag is historically correct? My knowledge on Defiant units leaves a lot to be desired!

Great show!!!

The instructions say that the lighter colour was probably correct.

You've made a beautiful job of that. I did mine as the night fighter version but it does look very nice in dark green/earth.

The night version was veeery tempting.

Wonderful work on that Defiant.

 

Brilliant exhaust staining; as realistic as ever I have seen.

Thank you! I used very thinned down Mr. Hobby black paint and built the stains up slowly.

I agree, Michael- I was going to say the same thing!
