robgizlu Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 This was my second aircraft build in a long time and coming after the Airfix Spitfire was a considerable rude awakening. Challenging fit at times and very time consuming in overall build. Cockpits decals are from Airscale (How good are they!) and the wheels are further things of beauty from Barracuda Studios. Paint was Mig Ammo Red and the deep cream was a 50 : 50 mix of Ammo Warm sand and AK RLM 04 Thanks for looking Rob 41 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Parvis Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Great to see this done Rob, really nice work, as ever. I remember when you got this kit. I don't remember when you got, but I do remember it was a ways back. Matt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Parvis Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Also, I see you've discovered the joy that is 1/48th ICM figures. Some of the best IM figures I've come across in any scale and, to me, the best in 48th. Matt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitfire31 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Excellent miniature representation, looking just right. And I like the offset front wheel of the vehicle – adds 'life'! Kind regards, Joachim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The base is re-used and the vehicle dates form PA (fond memories) On 10/1/2018 at 2:30 PM, Matt Parvis said: Also, I see you've discovered the joy that is 1/48th ICM figures.

It is a really nice figure - from the Luftwaffe set as you know - I just wish there were more Brit figures around On 10/1/2018 at 6:57 PM, Martian Hale said: Beautiful!

Gr TC Thanks Rog and Gr TC - I'm a sucker for Royal Aircraft establishment schemes and Gr - I agree - The Firefly is transformed by the colour. There'll be a Meteor to come when time allows. Thanks once again all - after this brief aircraft foray - it's back to the boats Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
