Dstream Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 (edited) This is my build of this powerful and handsome aircraft which I built from the nice Airfix 1:48 kit, Export versions. For this aeroplane, I chose the livery of the Koninklijke Marine (Royal Netherlands Navy) which in 1953 was part of an aerobatic team called AeroBats. I enjoyed very much this kit which reproduces quite well the compact and streamlined lines of this aircraft. The fit of the parts is very good and well engineered. For the Sky paint, I made of a mix of Tamiya XF-21 (4/5) with white XF-2 (1/5) while for the EDSG I chosed the Gunze 333 which reproduces this color without the need of concocting any mixture. This is the first time I use these Gunze acrylic paints and I was positively impressed by their quality. I hope you like it, best regards, Dan.

Best regards, Dan. Very well deserved Dan. I like the unusual colour scheme you picked. It looks like a beast of an aircraft! Nice restraint in the weathering too. Perfect!
