Miles Magister Trainer - Special Hobby 1/48

[Phil]

Started this one tonight, reminds me of Classic Airframes, which I love to build.

Will be doing the box art version.

Resin parts

The injection molded glass pieces are the best I have ever seen in a kit

Decals don't look to shabby either!

more later.

Nice Phil!, I have the Flash Back version of this kit I picked up a couple of years ago. It looks like a decent kit, I am interested to see how it goes together for you.

This will be fun to watch. Does it have the blind flying hood included or is that something you have to make?

The Hood would be neat to see.

 

[Dave The Chef]

Nice Phil! Yet more proof that British Is Beautiful!

 

[Barney]

It would be interesting in Irish markings, for certain... But then everything looks better after a little Irish...

Very interesting subject Phil . I like how you are over painting the silver and the yellow.

I can tell there is more fun ahead

Cheers, Christian B)

 

[Phil]

Thanks Christian, the silver is Tamiya A/S 12 bare metal silver, it is an excellent base for the Gunze/Mr Hobby acrylics, no paint lift ever, plus good for wear/chipping later.
