Tamiya 1/48 De Havilland Mosquito FB Mk.VI/NF Mk.II (COMPLETED)

TimM63 · Jul 29, 2024

This kit is going on the bench. Will be starting on this tonight or tomorrow. Also ordered the Quinta Studios interior 3D decal set.

That's gonna take up some space in the cabinet when finished!

I'm jonesing to do a twin-engine fighter like the Mossie or the Lightning, but space is a consideration.

(Mossie and Lightning because I hate building radials except for Focke Wulf which have almost invisible engines)

I hang airplanes on the wall, helicopters from the ceiling, and put vehicles on a shelf.

Made a little progress on this kit today. Got the wing's together and the landing gear done.

Really nice.

I am still waiting on my Quinta-Studios decals to arrive from Russia. Last I checked they were in New York.

I have two builds going at the same time so progress is slow.
I did get some of the cockpit done.

Looking great, I like it. Now I'm thinking about getting a mossie for the stash. PM

Nice progress.

BlackSheepTwoOneFour · Aug 25, 2024

Looking good. I have the same kit in my stash. However, I hate it when it tells you to install the landing gear struts so early in the build. You're risking snapping them off as go go along.

I prefer to add them last if it can be done, especially after painting the bird.

The figures look great, too!

Thank you Gary.
I made some more progress today. I have a couple of more items to add then it will be ready for paint.

Edbert · Aug 25, 2024

Hey Tim, I did this to Gary in his F-4 thread too, hope you're not offended, I just love this guy's videos.

That is looking really great. What brand is this?

TimM63 · Aug 25, 2024

This is a Tamiya kit.

I got the base coat sprayed today. Next is camo.
Looks like I need to fill a seam.
