Excellent work!
I recommend that you change the first photo to one of the completed pictures, otherwise most people will miss this gem.

Alec K
Excellent build

Neuling
I agree with Alec.

Erik Leijdens
Great work Gary! Looks like a nice kit, luckily I have one too

Gary Victory
Gents, Thank you all for your kind comments.
gorbygould... note taken and images moved. I post the interior up some months ago.
Erik.... This is a really nice kit. I would not bother with any after market for the interior... you cant see anything inside. The exterior is up to you.
Word of advice for your build.... watch the heavy sprue gates especially on the engine parts and take your time dry fitted the engine fire walls. I found them to be a bit of a pain but nothing serious.
Thanks again.

Bernhard Pethe

Nice finish and many details for the interior.

Scott Dutton
Beautiful build and finish

Treehugger
How did you make the chipped paint effect?

Alec K
Very nicely done

Gary Victory
Thank you both.

Treehugger - For the topside just use of a cocktail stick and silver paint applied on the 'high traffic' areas.
For the blue showing through the black i used Humbrol maskol applied with a piece of sponge and concentrate around the leading edge of the wings, engines and any access hatches.
I hope that helps..?

Neuling
Looks very good!

Treehugger
Any issues with shink holes or the like? I have this kit in my stash.

Gary Victory
Hi Treehugger. Nothing to report. If any issues appeared it was the normal sinkage due to glue curing. All major assemblies went well with no fit issues. The only to note is take care fitting the clear parts on the nose. For me it was a quick build done over the christmas holidays 2018/2019.
Obviously being a Revell kit you dont get the swashtika which is ok, so in part that was my drive to do a 'painted over' look on the tail which i have seen in reference material.
I hope when you build your kit you have the same trouble free build.

1:72 Hasegawa Kit with Eduard canopy Mask set, Seatbelts and Cockpit.

Just some brief notes on my build.
Contruction was staright forward and i did not encounter any real issues.
Paint was mainly either Mr Hobby or Tamiya for the main camo.
The Black i focused on giving a different tone by adding Tamiya X-3 Royal Blue, XF-10 Red Brown and XF-69 NATO Black with a final light overcoat of XF-1 Matt Black.
Flory model Dark dirt wash was used to bring the panel lines out then after a clear coat i used the oil paint dot method using browns, greens and blue on the top surface of the wings to add some differnt tones.
I also used lamp black and sephia mixed together for stains around the engines and exhaust stains.
Bombs painted in diffrent Tamiya greens to give a more worn varied look and added some artwork to the Cookie with Tamiya X-2 Gloss white.
Bombs weathered with Tamiya weathering Set and Humbrol pigment Dark Earth.

Thanks for looking in.
Happy Modelling.
