here is my next project, that started already some time ago. Unfortunately Christmas-vacation is over and suddenly there is not that much bench time as "before".
Here is the object, Airfix new 1/72 kit of the legendary Boulton Paul Defiant.
The build will be the same as the cover-art.
The kit is very well done and engineerd, as with the Wildcat. It's really a joy (even if not too challenging) to build a kit of this quality!
Some test-fitting... everything really "locks" into place, wonderful kit all in all!
Work starts, as more or a less always, from the "internals"...
The Yahu instrument panel in place.
I had to cut and slightly reform the Yahus instrument panel, so it would fit in the cockpit. Something it did not really do (argh), so I had to adjust it, by cutting and moving it downwards ~1 mm to make it fit.
With canopy on I guess that will not be noticed. But then again, it might be difficult to see this wonderful piece of art... Will see..
Nevertheless, here the Yahu-IP in place..
I bought also nicer gun barrells...
And here she is, wings and stabilizers in place... waiting for next steps..
So let's see what will be next!
