Messy Moskito - part 3

It's finished at last.  Given the poor quality of the kit parts it doesn't look too bad - although I reached that conclusion before my recent eye test...
I kept the paintwork pretty basic - mid grey blotches over a pale grey base coat.  Interior detail is minimal - no crew figures are supplied with the kit (this seems to be something of a trend among manufacturers) and I had none in the spares box.

  1. Turned out nice that. Given the difficulties you had you should be pleased. Now you just need a few heavies for it to intercept.

    Cheers,

  2. I agree, it turned out really well. I think we tend to see our own imperfections more readily. Very well done model.

    Thanks. Perhaps it'll have to use my Airfix Lancaster for target practice?

    It's still a pig's ear, but it's a built and painted pig's ear....
