First time using alclad gloss and flat. Tamiya panel liner didn't like the alclad or I didn't wait long enough so weathering is a bit heavy. Plus - I don't know how but I got a lot of crap in the paint. Anyhow, fun little 1/48 older Tamiya kit.

Wrapped up this little Buffalo in New Zealand markings. Part of a secret Santa build over on FSM

Very nice build of this legendary fighter (legendary at least for the Finnish airforce, with close to 480 kills during years 1941 - 1944 )

Re: Tamiya 1/48 Buffalo
Very nicely done. You have to love those classic two sprue wonders by Tamiya.

That’s purity. Real purty.

To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..
Re: Tamiya 1/48 Buffalo
Superb looking build that - you don't see those built up very often.
