Re: Avro Anson Belgian AF (Airfix)
You've got a busy bench (a busier fridge). Nice job on this one.

Very neatly done codes, well done! I remember loving this one as a kid, lots of parts for a series 2 and a working undercarriage that worked!

Sweet looking Annie, Did-Nev! I'm always impressed when I see this kit built up nicely, as it soundly defeated my efforts at a good looking build.

I like that. I did a silver Anson when I was little and made a right mess of it, fingerprints everywhere.
May I ask where you got the smooth cowls?

Thanks for the nice comments all!
I used the originals and altered them a bit.Aerosol Grey Machine wrote:May I ask where you got the smooth cowls?

Nice job!
I gave this kit a proper work-over a couple of years back; I appreciate what you have done.
cheers,
David

Re: Avro Anson Belgian AF (Airfix)
Aah! Did you just have to file the bumps off or was there more shaping involved? I'd check mine out against your photos but it's buried at the moment...did_nev wrote:

Hi
Did not know the Anson operated in these markings, stunning model - like what you've done with the cowls.

I did the same but sacrified a Frog/Novo Oxford in order to have new NACAs without bumps!
