I will post more pictures in the completed thread. But I would just like to say that this kit is just great, Airfix have really made a good one with this. I didn’t use any filler at all. If you want to build a Boulton Paul Defiant in 1/48 this is the kit. Some great detail OOB, I’ve just added some seatbelts.

Just catching up on the GB's. Lovely work Ian on a great looking kit. One I would love to get hold of one day.
The Paint turned out really well. I to was wondering how well the pre-shade would work. It worked very well. Black aircraft are always tricky to get to look right and you hit it right on the head.
