1/72nd Revell Halifax GR.II With Freightdog Improvements

Post by pmarshall »

Finished yesterday, definitely not one of my better ones but fun none the less. The Freightdog resin fits really well and corrects some of the flaws, but it's still a fun kit to build. The white was a real pain but it's a cracking scheme so worth the effort. Also a nice timely reminder as to why I rarely work in 1/72nd, the masking was a royal pain.

Looks great Peter, nice to see a Halifax in that scheme. What issues does the Freightdog set address?

Improves the Radiators and intakes significantly, also gives correct wheels and H2S Dome.
