EE Lightning F.2A 92 Squadron RAFG 1/48


Recommended Posts

Good evening all,

 

I got a bit of a steal on eBay and found this started Lightning F.2A/F.6 for £15.  A real Mojo restorer!

There were some parts painted and built and the decals were unuseable as they were water damaged, so having an F.6 which I intended to build in a grey scheme I hatched a plan to use the 11 squadron stencils and some Model Alliance decals to build the 'King Cobra', Flagship 92 of Wing Cdr Mitchell.

Humbrol metal cote aluminium was used for the undersides with some panels picked out in Bare Metal Foil (Matte Aluminium).

Topsides were Humbrol 163 aerosol with a Flory wash and tonal variation was acheived by using matte and satin lacquers on different panels.

 

Enjoy.
