Hi all, I have not made a model for ages so I thought I would give it a try.
I went for 1.48 as this scale is proberly a bit more forgiving, and the Sky Raider just because I,m a big fan of this colour scheme. I am going to try the Airfix Martin B57B Canberra next, should be finished in about 2 years...

Wow, thankyou for all the kind comments. I have to say its forums like this that have inspired me to start making them again.
Looking at other peoples creations have made me look at the various methods of weathering etc.. to make an acceptable looking model.
This one is by a long chalk not perfect but as long as you the maker is happy, then it has in my book been a successful venture.
Believe me this one very nearly ended up being aimed out of the window many a time...

Very carefully with my airbrush, using just black and brown.
