1/48 Tamiya Beaufighter Mk 21

Earlier this year my family and I moved from one side of Australia to the other.  Here is one of my models which survived the move better than most.  It was a replacement for a Tamiya Mossie B.IV which my young son disassembled.

It was my first use of aftermarket decals (Eagle Strike Sheet 48-155 Green Ghost Squadron) and represents an aircraft of 93 Squadron RAAF, Labuan, Borneo in the summer of 1945.  Finished using brush painted Tamiya acrylics, panel lines highlighted using my daughter's watercolours.
