Gisbod Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Hi all, Just finished this, to replicate RR232 currently based at Goodwood. This kit is Airfix’s finest to date, great fit, nice detail and the stressed skin effect is exceptionally well rendered. Thanks for looking… Guy Rampenfest, KiwiZac, KUROK and 24 others 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quang Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Neat build, Guy! The soft-edged demarcation between the camouflage colours is very realistic. How did you achieve it? What paint did you used? Cheers, Quang Gisbod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gisbod Posted March 15 Author Share Posted March 15 Thanks Quang, I did it freehand with my Iwata, took a steady hand! MRP is my go to paint, they’re great. Guy Greg W and quang 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiwiZac Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 As I said on another forum modelling warbirds is my "thing", and I have a particular preserved example to build from this kit too, and to see RR232 so lovingly reproduced is a real treat. Bravo!! Gisbod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod Bettencourt Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 That is gorgeous, I usually like a little more weathering but dig what you did. Thanks for sharing. Rod Gisbod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greif8 Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Beautiful build Guy! The engine and weapons area in the wing look very nice indeed. I also think your camo scheme is quite well done! Ernest Gisbod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
