    Airfix 1/48 Boulton Paul Defiant Mk.1

    Hi everyone, here is my take on the Airfix kit. Enhanced with a BigED set for the interior, wheel wells and landing flaps, also added brass barrels as the kit could use that little extra too:cool: Although I planned to enter it in a GB, mojo loss prevented that. First time I modified a kit so...
