stevej60 Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 OK folk's,of the few Frog kit's that came my way this one stick's out in the mind I seem to think it had a warped fuselage and it was one of the few occasions I used a complaint sheet around 71 or 72 ,I remember thinking the decals were duff as they didn't have the red centres! Be a while before I get a start as she's fourth in line after the Henschel's get done. http://frog.cocardes.com/f291-beaufighter 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehnz Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 I picked up a bare kit of this a while ago, I'm happy to say mine was a nice boring grey. I'll be watching this one like a hawk. Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelling minion Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Great to see the Beaufighter has turned up too, even if the plastic looks a bit iffy. Will you be going with the Aussie markings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like Steve’s painted himself into an Aussie corner as the Mk.21 was only ever used by the RAAF. Rich and I are off to the pub anyway, so we can keep the gloves down for a good while yet!

dogsbody Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Not long after I had acquired my first Hasegawa Beau, I gave away my FROG kit. I think it may have been to someone on this forum, but I don't remember for sure. Now I have 3 Hasegawas and two Airfix kits. Chris 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 (edited) I've didn't build either of the old Beaufighter kits as a kid, Frog or Airfix but seeing as I've acquired kits of both in the last 6 months or so, I guess I might be a sitter for the Kit you didn't build as a kid GB if it gets off the ground. Maybe even a Foliage Green Aussie Mk 21? Steve. Edited May 30, 2020 by stevehnz 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 That's a great idea! Kits you drooled over but for whatever reason you never got 👍 John 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
