Hasegawa 1/72 Beaufighter Mk.VI

Here is one of my projects that is nearly finished. Nice little kit, but lacking in cockpit detail. Seeing how nice the rest of the kit was I decided to spruce up cockpit a bit.

After paint

I have got most of the airframe together and am just sanding seams, so nothing really exciting to show there
Should be ready for paint before long.

Hi Ernie, I love the Beau. I wound up with an Aires interior in mine thought. Got kit bashed one that needs painting.
Rock on !

Nice. I have a 1/32 kit to do someday with 404 Sqn RCAF markings to do. I think lack of an interior stopped me. Like how you did yours.

Ernie,

if this is "a bit" then what is a lot for you?


Excellent self-made upgrade.

Thank you all for the comments; Saul, I guess I was refering to the fact that I did not use a commercial upgrade set with etch and all that. I auctually used pictures of the cockpit in Tamyia's 1/48th scale kit as a guide. Plus I was only going to do a little, but was afraid more would be seen, so kept going. In the end, very, very little aside from the tub will be seen . I also used the kit intrument panel decal as well and tape for the seat belts.
