With my Hobbyboss Ta152 entering the final stages, I decided to start this to keep up some momentum. I've built a few 1:72 Airfix kits but this is my first in 1:48 scale.

Work, as usual, has started in the cockpit. The inside of the fuselage sides has quite a rough texture compared to the outer surfaces. Although the instructions say the parts should be painted in silver, I followed the lead of the model that was built in Military Illustrated Modeller and painted them interior green.

I subsituted the kit instrument panel decal with individual items from Airscale.

Thanks for looking

Finally some progress. Has taken ages to get to this point. Wheel wells were sprayed using Ammo metallic colours and given a wash made from a mix of brown acrylic and Klear.
