1/48 Scale Tamiya Bristol Beaufighter Mk. VI - FINISHED

Looks great!

Thanks for sharing.

She’s a real beauty. Despite my best efforts I seem to always get too heavy a coat on the camo. Yours is fantastic! Thanks for sharing

You nailed the weathering.  That looks excellent!

Sensational work, well done.

Thanks for your replies...much appreciated! I usually build up the camo in layers, adding a bit of white to the paint and thin it further to get the faded look. The kit came with a camo template that was easy to cut and apply to the surfaces. A bit of Blutac to fasten them and help with the feathering on the edges did the trick.

Thanks for the tip. Ah ”layers” my old nemesis

Outstanding! You did a nice job on the preshading too.

 

It's actually post shading... no preshading was done. Wanted to try something different for this one.

Very nce build, I like the desert scheme :-)
