t15dja Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 I finished this kit a little while back, but haven't shared these images before. It was built straight out of the box, except for the decals (which were German air force in the box). I wanted to create the aircraft ZM402 that was at one of the recent RIAT airshows at Fairford (even down to the open pilot's window). The aftermarket decals were a pain...extremely delicate and tore or dissolved easily, which is why some may look a bit rough around the edges! The yellow and silver stripes on the propellers were all hand painted (since the kit's yellow propeller decals looked awful once applied). I also had to make the white decals around the doors. A huge and impressive model once built....but you'll need plenty of space! 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romeo Alpha Yankee Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Very nice I recently completed ZM406 using the Babibi decal sheet and a later boxing of the kit with the white door surrounds. You have done a great job with yours! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
