1/72 Tamiya Mosquito PRXVI


Recommended Posts

Good morning
For my next build in this Gb I will try to convert the Tamiya Mosquito BIV into a PR XVI with the help of the  Attack Squadron set (reboxed by Arma Hobby )  to represent this aircraft  ..

Good evening

 I made a start by glueing together the 2 parts of the half fuselages I painted the Interior in HU 78 Green and some details on the cockpit side walls

I also prepared and placed the seats

Good to see another mosquito on here!! 👍

 

Am I right in thinking this had the 2 stage merlins?

Good afternoon Lawzer

 Thank .. Yes the aircraft that I will try to represent is a PR XVI equipped with 2 stage Merlins I hope that I will have not too much difficulties using the Attack Squadron (Arma Hobby ) parts ...

All the best

Good morning Lawzer

 I must admit that I am rather pleased with the result of my work but I took my  time not to damage the resin parts when I removed them from theit supports ..

If I can do it you should be able to use the single stage Merlins resin parts you have .

All the best
