FPDPenguin Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Completed this build a month or two back. I had fallen into the Italian camouflage hole and really fancied giving some a go. This one caught my eye. And for £15 it bought plenty of joy. Airbrushed very carefully and came out pretty good for a first attempt. I might build this bird in 1/48 some day. Thanks again for looking 🐧 44 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred piket Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 you've done a cracking job! I just love the result, and that for a first attempt, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Tip Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Lovely build. I'll never forget my S79 build, more than 15 years ago - the bomber variant. I wanted to open the top gunner's position, but I had to look until google page 83 to find a pic of the exact thing. Yours is easier... but also much better painted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
