Gisbod Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 (edited) Hi all, Finally finished... thanks for those looking in on the build thread. It will hopefully appear in ‘Scale Aviation Modeller’ at some point. Thanks for looking, Guy Edited June 3, 2018 by Gisbod 64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinnie Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Well, there aren't that many RFIs that can stand up to close up shots like yours. Great job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitfire31 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 One of the best looking Defiants I've seen. Only question mark might be the somewhat shiny finish. Standard British WWII camo was more or less dead matte, wasn't it? Great work! Kind regards, Joachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artie Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 A real beauty, a headturner.......The only thing I don't like about your Defiant is that she's not into my cabinet.... Cheers..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruce bay Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Lovely looking. Really great level of weathering - something I am yet to master, or in fact get anywhere near! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gisbod Posted June 4, 2018 Author Share Posted June 4, 2018 Thanks for the comments.. Probably is is a little too shiny. But they did appear to have a light sheen... Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomkil Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Is there a model of the year competition on Britmodeller? If not, there should be. And if there were, this would be in the running. Superb! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzby061 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Excellent. Airfix have done a great job with that kit & you've done it more than justice. I've always had a soft spot for the Defiant. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gisbod Posted June 8, 2018 Author Share Posted June 8, 2018 Yep, The kit kit was a pleasure to make. There were lots of extras added but it would be lovely straight out of the box. Great to see Airfix thriving again! Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F-32 Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 That's beautiful, I really like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybershed Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Looks fab! Well done with that one. I think I would like to build that kit myself. How was the experience building it. Good fitting parts, or much filling & sanding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
