1/48 Tamiya Gloster Météor F Mk III

--------------------

 

There is my Météor III from Tamiya.  I don' t know if it's nessecary to write about this kit, it's a Tamiya model kit.  I just used the Eduard's photo-etch set for the cockpit and undercariage, cut the ailerons and stabilisators and glue them in a more dynamic position.  The rest is "from the box".

Paints are from Tamiya too. The model was first paint in standard colors. On pictures of the real aircraft, we can see that the panel joints are more white than the rest, so all of them where "pre-shaded" with...white. Then a light coat of white was sprayed. The standard camo could be seen by transparency.  The decals are from the box.
