Encore 1/72 Bristol Beaufort

decals for turkish air force applied, the decals are probably the only bit of the kit thats any good haha

slight weathering and matt varnish to finish.

Might see about making it part of a "mobile" for the grandsons bedroom.

Do you think that is wise Wayne? With all that filler and putty, if it fell off it would crush the poor blighters skull and you would need iron cable to hold it up ha ha

Jokeing aside great work on this kit well beaten into shape

you could be right, the engine nacelles alone weight a couple of pounds LOL

if nothing else its been a learning experience.

 

[wbk666]

well its finally finished or as finished as i could get it.

If you squint it doesnt look too bad LOL

It doesn't look good at all. It looks great! Nicely recovered Wayne, you should be very proud of the finished result considering the kit quality (or lack thereof, perhaps 'Encore' spell quality with a K?).

it looks ok in the pics but doesnt stand up to close scrutiny.

Thanks for the comments Joe, much appreciated :D
