This is my build of Matchbox Wessex that saw action in Borneo during Ops Confrontation in the 60's, for this build, I replace the HU5 nose with the HAS.1 nose that provided in the kit, paint used were Gunze Mid Stone and  Tamiya Nato Green, and decals taken from a mixture of Kit decal and self printed black marking for RN 845 Sqn Wessex aboard RN commando carrier HMS Bulwark.

This was an enjoyable build and I'm looking forward to build the Italari Wessex HU5 next..

Happy Merdeka
