That’s a mighty fine Beaufort you have there! Excellent work all around!!!

You are most kind Bill - thank you!

Well done Roger, that’s most certainly up there with some of the very best Beaufort builds around. I really like the scheme and it suits the lines of this kit quite handsomely. Sure makes a nice change to the more typical finishes you see. Nice one. 
Cheers and well modelled.. Dave.

Thanks for the kind words Dave - much appreciated! I very much look forward to seeing your next efforts with this kit. Bring on the DAP Beaus...

That is well done, to be sure!   You have got me seriously thinking about moving this kit up to the top of my  “build soon” pile! 

 

I like the color scheme you used on your model -  but I also really like the “3 shades of Blue” Mediterranean camo….. I’m thinking I might do that one instead— I haven’t seen it done by anyone else yet.

 

Thanks again for sharing your build in such a thorough fashion- I’ll be referring back to it many times, I’m sure!

Congratulations Roger. A great piece of workmanship.  You obviously take pride in your work and it shows.

 

I took some photos recently of the turret spent brass container (first time I have seen an intact one) and will post them and other turret photos taken the same day to the turret thread

as soon as I can get at them - my Win10 computer crashed so I cannot access the Icloud at present and the nearest computer tech is over a 100km trip on "average" roads.
