Tamiya kit, check.
Simple paint scheme, check.
Resin cockpit.... there goes the quick and easy part...

Who knows I may only use a few bits. Haven't even taken the wrapper off the kit yet

Nice - I love the Beaufighter! I shall be looking forward to see how this comes together (and if you need the resin cockpit!)

Not hating at all, but... Putting a resin cockpit set into a Tamiya aircraft kit is like throwing a spike strip on a drag racing speedway... it’s gonna slow things down big time...

When I bought the kit the resin was part of the package. When I dig in we'll see how much I actually use
