corsaircorp Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Hello Dears End of March already... And here's my first RFI for 2020 ... Times have been and still are shaky... And weird. But I finally managed to finish a kit ! Still in my "operation Tungsten" Serie First of all, I will here thank my helm man for this build, I mean @Grey Beema Thank you Grey, for the pics and tips. So here's the "Gannet" flown by Stan Orr Eduard week end boxing, with the addition of the related PE fret Eduard Zoom. Paints are Xtracrylics as usual, decals came from the kit and generic decal sheet Plus some hand painting ! I restrained the weathering since these birds were almost new at the time of the Tirpitz attack. weathering is made with Flory as usual too... I added some bits and bobs on the interior... If the weather allow it, I will add some exterior pics tomorrow ! Feel free to comment and above all, bantering is welcome too !! Have a great modelling time !

corsaircorp Posted March 29, 2020 Author Share Posted March 29, 2020 Here's the WiP for anyone interested.. Well, Time for a Tungsten actors's meeting ! Amazing how the first pic is yellow, I surely goofed once more ! The next Tungsten addition is very oftenly mocked by aircraft enthusiast... But I tend to like these flying proof of the so famed british humor !! easy to guess now.... So Gents, see you later !! Sincerely. CC 13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
