Courageous Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 What seems like an eternity the Bucc build is complete. WiP here. This is my rendition of a Buccaneer S2D of the FAA. The partially started Airfix kit was started some months ago, and came with the resin bomb bay fitted, some resin seats and lots of resin bits-n-bobs. The cockpit was scratch built as were the wheel bays and slipper tanks moved inboard to correct position to avoid wing fold. Refueling probe and pitot were replaced by those from Master. Painted with enamels from Colourcoats and finished off with kit decals. Not mt best but not my worst. Glad it's finished and it's time to move on. Thanks for looking.

Meatbox8 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 A beautiful Buccaneer in my favourite scheme for the type. Just goes to show what can be produced from this old kit with a bit of patience and perseverance. It's high time we were treated to a new, state of the art kit of this fantastic aircraft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Courageous Posted July 12, 2018 Author Share Posted July 12, 2018 Thanks for the generous feedback guys, must be doing something right. It was a battle with the Bucc, heat and humidity didn't help but it turned out better than I thought. Stuart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
