Meteor_F8_#1

Gloster Meteor F.8 - 1/32 HK Models kit + Fisher resin conversion - Richard Clothier. The resin adds new nose, tail, cockpit and engine nacelles. There's not much left of the donor kit when done. This proved to be one of the most difficult kits I've built in recent years. Lots of work to blend the resin and plastic components. The Fisher cockpit is fantastic, the decals absolute rubbish. They are extremely fragile and prone to silvering. This is the second paint job, the first had to be ditched when the decals broke up on me. The original scheme was the 'County of Surrey' squadron with a blue and white tail. Not perfect by a long way but I'm pleased with the result.
