Over the Finnish line. Airfix 1/48 Blenheim, Finnish AF


Recommended Posts

This is Airfix's excellent 1/48 Blenheim. I already had the AML decals in so thought I'd use them, the kit has the option of the bomber glazing so just omit the gun pack. Eduard seat belts & mask used. 

 

Any comments, constructive criticism & observations welcome.

Very nice indeed :goodjob:although I have, never seen a Blenheim with dihedral tail planes tho ???

You're right Keith. Must have had my Beaufighter head on. Thanks for pointing that out.

Very attractive model, the modified tailplane attitude notwithstanding!

 

Those Finnish AF markings, count von Rosen's blue swastika (nothing to do with the German corporal's misuse of the ancient sun cross) make for a distiguished and colorful impression.

 

Nice work!

 

Kind regards,

 

Joachim
