Hey folks,
I'm normally a lurker here, I don't tend to post outside of my regular sites just read other peoples stuff. But I've been told I should post this over here so here I am, cap in hand showing you my finished bird. It's out the box and yes I'm fully aware of all the shortcomings of the kit, Davis Wing, Turrets yardy yar etc etc
I've put Master Model Barrels on it and some RB belts, not that you can see them, but other than that she's El Naturel
Finished in Alclad, Gunze and Ushchi metal powders, weathered with Mig products.
Thanks for looking and be gentle.........

Thanks everyone for your kind words.
Well if I'd been making a formation plane I could of painted off the nose glazing and it probably would of been ok with what was recommended in the instructions which is 300g, but as I wanted to be able to see through the cockpit area and not see huge chunks of lead etc I had to put it under the Navs area which is a lot further to centre of gravity. In the end I put almost 600g of weight in, this was mostly under the Navs area (under the Mid Upper) with the last 150g actually inside the Navs area painted interior green so you won't see it.
Yeah Iain I converted my garage workshop in to my Hobby room, the area I setup is removable and comprises of a fold out table and a roll down backdrop.
That window at the end is where the old roll up door was.
The finished products go here

It's me again with yet another 1/32Liberator build from HobbyBoss this time it's the 'D'.
Built almost straight from the box, I did add belts, .50 cals from Master Models, National ingsignia Stencils from DN-Models and standard Stencils from Profimodeller.
Painted with Gunze Acrylics and Lacquer paints and weathered with Ammo of Mig washes etc.
For all the Facebook users who are bored of seeing me spamming this, sorry :D
Thanks for looking, the build is on my FB page https://www.facebook.com/g1models/

It was an absolute doosey to build it literally fell together, most of the kit was almost push fit, it went together that well. I was able to build the whole cockpit area and all the interior as dry fit then take it apart and paint it.
I'm definitely going to be getting at least one more of these and the D, the D I'll do as a Mk. III in RAF use, either as Coastal Command or 205 Group.
