Lovely looking Halifax :) quick question what colours did you use for the camo??

A 16mm strip of Tamiya tape sliced freehand into a wavy line. One side for each side of the aircraft. It's not as 'straight' as it should be and not nearly wavy enough but it suffices.

Humrol 29 & 116 over 33 (as given by the colour charts on IPMS Stockholm)

Thanks for the comments.

Looks great Ian, nice in bomber command colours, and the background suits nicely.

Cheers
