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

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

Very nicely done. You have to love those classic two sprue wonders by Tamiya.

Superb looking build that - you don't see those built up very often.
