Decals now in place on the Beaufort,. I'm using the kit decals and they work really well with Microset etc. Brushed on Vallejo Matt, with a dash of gloss, varnish. Now for the gathering, It would appear from photographs that operational Beauforts were very scruffy with marked paintwork, especially on the wing surfaces close to the fuselage.
Any word of warning about the build. It is very important to ensure the turret is accurately assembled and is sitting down well into its mounting. This is because the fairing that covers the front edges of the turret, and indeed stops it falling out, is a tight fit and needs to bed in accurately to the fuselage before being glued into position.
Standby for the next episode soon.
