I thought I'd share my latest completed model. It's all finished except for the antenna wire, which I have to wait for until new stock arrives at Red Roo, it's my DAP Beaufighter Mk.21, Rockabye Baby, as flown by F/L McMilan and F/O Hayes of No. 22 Squadron RAAF, based at Morotai Island, February 1944.

Kit: Tamiya 1/48 Beaufighter Night Fighter.
After market: Eduard Photo etch for interior, Red Roo Wheels, Engine cooling cowls, engine exhausts and main wheels, and Print Scale Decals.
Paints: Tamiya
Additional details: Scratch build additional interior parts.

How nice is that, one of the best Beaufighters I've seen modelled Troy, well done and it looks a treat in the cabinet.
