Daz's BTK re-pop **FINISHED**
Daz's BTK re-pop **FINISHED**
I'll be doing one of these:
I'm tempted to give this one a cockpit and some additional detail, but I might just leave it depending on the time I give myself!

Re: Daz's BTK re-pop
Good Choice Daz! It's a nice little kit this - I added a 3D-kits MK.II conversion set to mine when I built it.

Re: Daz's BTK re-pop
I prefer the older kit to the new one, if I'm honest!
I might see what I have in the stash for the cockpit parts.

Re: Daz's BTK re-pop
I'm not going to go mad with internal details - a pilot figure will do, and I sincerely doubt I have an open canopy in the stash anyway (rather than try hacking the Airfix offering up!).
Externally, though, I'll try to weather it to look like a Battle of Britain-era aircraft. It'll be as OOB as possible.

Re: Daz's BTK re-pop
Well, I made a start with this one on Sunday - internals painted; propeller painted and assembled.
Pics later.

Tailplane fitted and most of the smaller airframe parts attached.
I realise I've not posted any pics (thus fully warranting the "this thread is worthless without pics" gif), but I will get on the case tonight!

Hey Daren, where is the instruction sheet?
