Navy Bird Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Nicely done, Tony. If you say it's a good kit, then I'll just have to get one! Cheers, Bill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPuente54 Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Beautiful job, Tony, just absolutely beautiful! I had been considering getting it for "the stash"; it is now a definite kit to get. I second what Navy Bird said. I look forward to the future marks! Joe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanC Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Very good indeed. The internal structure of the turrets and the guns look very convincing on this kit. Must get one! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cngaero Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Tony, I have followed your work on BM for a few years now and I never cease to be in awe of the quality of finish that you manage to achieve with a simple paint brush. No matter what model you produce, it is always finished to the highest standards, but you have raised the bar with the Wellington. It is absolutely stunning. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColinChipmunkfan Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Great looking model Tony, the early Wellingtons with the camouflaged fuselages look so much more interesting to me.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bedders Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Very nice indeed Tony. I wasn't organised enough to follow the WIP, but I've had a look now. The internals are extraordinary, and the whole thing looks great when finished. Top brush-work as usual. Justin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ-WobblyHands Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 a lovely Wimpy , it looks stunning! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinnie Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Superb Tony, well done. My Revell Wellington is currently on the shelf of doom. Four-part turret assemblies have temporarily defeated me. Please tell me Airfix have improved this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camper1 Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Another nicely done model Tony. Are you running out of space yet? Ian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unfinished project Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 That’s a top notch build and finish Tony. A skill level that I can only aspire to reach. 👍👍👍👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevej60 Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Just checked out the WIP Tony that interior is stunning too,excellent job all round,I think I may have to buy one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabbit Leader Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 It's so nice to know that after all these years of putting up with either old kits or having to modify certain others a nice new and accurate early Wellington is now easily available. This now joins the same manufacturers Whitley so we all hope what's the next early war twin engined bomber that should follow. Once again Tony you have built a beautiful example of a new tooled kit. This does more for sales than anything else I know and even though I was always going to get one, after seeing this finish I'll probably get one a lot sooner. Judging by most comments above, I just hope that Airfix have produced enough for the strong demand that has been generated. Thanks for posting these superb photos of your great build. Cheers. Dave. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 (edited) That is utterly beautiful Tony, I think you just pushed the bar up another couple of notches. 👍 Steve. Edited July 21, 2018 by stevehnz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyot Posted July 21, 2018 Author Share Posted July 21, 2018 Thanks for your very kind comments everybody,..... I`m so glad that you like it and hope that those of you who buy one enjoy yours as much as I enjoyed this one! A massive thanks to Airfx too for releasing another model of a British classic aircraft. This one will be sitting alongside an Airfix Whitley in the same early scheme, remembering the bomber crews who served throughout the Battle of Britain, attacking enemy airfields, Channel ports and other targets.
