Nice work on a great kit.  Thanks for sharing.

Nicely done John .

Regards,  Rick

Another stunning build from the FAA/CC GB!  Simply stunning John, I like this build very much.

Great build and great paint job.  Very nice John !

Looks good John! I built that kit a little over a year ago and you are right, very nice kit. I like your paint and addition of the cowl supports, something I neglected to do.
Question: What kind of lighting are you using for your photos? Something about the pics makes the paint and the background blend and I can't really make out the paint color. At least on my monitor it does. I wonder if I need to make adjustments to my monitor?

Looks stunning!  I gotta say, the port and starboard visibilty in this bird must have sucked big time!

She's a beau-t!!!

That is one sweet looking Beau.

I don't know if the trim tabs are accurate or not but I do know that's one sharp looking Beau.

Beautiful John! 

I really like that paint scheme as well as the subtle weathering. Very nice!

What color did you use on the cowl exhaust ring?  I like the way it looks.

Great work John! Really nice! I happen to be working on one of these right now.

Kind regards-

Really nice build! The paint and decaling are both excellant. I've always thought this was one odd looking plane, but the more of them I see I'm beginning to get a new appreciation of this bird.

Beautifull build!!

This is my favorite fighter to do starffing runs with in Pacific Fighters flight sim game.

She looks absolutely stunning John.

All the photo references I have show the trim tab levers on the underside of the elevators. Also, in one of my reference books (Beaufort, Beaufighter and Mosquito in Australian Service - Stewart Wilson)  there's a diagram listing servicing panels and the "tab levers" are likewise, shown on the underside.

Jeaton.....your Beau  is a beaut....very nice with the subtle shading....great job!!!!

The elves approve!!!!

Thanks, one and all.I'm glad you all like it.  I appreciate the nice comments.

HK, the lighting is Tungsten, 5000 Kelvin, and that is what I used for white balance on my digital camera.  The background is white paper.  It looks about right on my monitors which are all flat screens.  The pictures are taken at F32, 3 second or 2 second exposures.

Phil, thanks for the trim tab information.  I have a book on the Beaufighter on the way, but used mostly net resources on this one.  One of these days I will do an Australian Beaufighter, I've had the decals for it for some time.

Jeremy, the cowl exhaust manifolds are painted with a mixture of Burnt Metal and Jet Exhaust by Model Master.

Very sharp and clean. I really like the Beaufighter, doesn't get the kudos it deserves.

Very nice build John.  One day I might even be able to get to mine.

Very nice. Great looking aircraft.
