Airfix 1/48 B.P. Defiant Mk.1


Recommended Posts

 

Good to see you cleaned up all the drool and slobber stains rained upon it when you displayed it at the meeting last weekend, Bruce !!

 

Other models cringe in shame when a 'Bruce-Build' is on the table !

Looking forward to your next effort......a Caribou in 48, perhaps.......  :o}

Too kind Rog

Funnily enough, I pulled the caribou down and opened the box upon getting home the other day.  Still haven't done anything, but the box is back on the pile of kits to be re-attacked!

Great looking Defiant! Those Masters barrels really look the business.

 

The finish looks very convincing, except (IMHO) that strange shading of the fabric covered surfaces. They spoil the realism, for me.

 

Otherwise, a magnificent display of modelling skills!

 

Kind regards,

 

Joachim

Thanks Joachim, to be honest, I don't really find it realistic either, I simply wanted to try it to stretch my skills with the airbrush a bit and try it.  If I were to do it again, I would be far more subtle with it, I think, but, No,its certainly not realistic, tending a bit more to the artistic side I think.

Thankyou for taking the time to comment.

 

Cheers

Bruce
