409 Squadron Beaufighter
This 409 Squadron RCAF Beaufighter was finished to represent one flown my a good friend, Bill Marr, who at 83 years young is still flying. I added a resin cockpit and a few of my spares decals. It is the best fitting kit that I have ever had the privilege to build.
The finish is my usual Polly Scale. The cowling fronts are exhaust collector rings, which when heated turn a burnt copper colour. This was achieved with first painting with Humbrol Copper then a thin coat of Model Master Burnt Metal which was polished until very little of it remained.
Flight Lieutenant Bill Marr at age 83 and still flying! |
