Coastal Command Wellington Mk.X & Liberator GR MK.VI, No. 311 (Czechoslovak) Squadron RAF

[pavolSK]

Hello,

here is my just finished Wellington B Mk.X in 1:72. This Wimpey was used by F/O Metoděj Šebela, DFC and his crew in middle of 1943. I've exploited the Eduard photoetched sets (interior, exterior, bomb bay), Aires wheels and some Quickboost resin parts. The model is airbrushed with the Tamiya Acrylic and Gunze Aqueous Hobby colors. The various details are painted with the Revell Aqua, Humbrol Acryl and Vallejo Colors.

Some in-progress and interior pictures you can find here.

Friends,

thanks for all your comments!

The Liberator shown on the last previous pictures I finished in the middle of the last year. It's also belonged to the armament of 311th (Czechoslovak) Squadron RAF. It's nickname was "Kosta" and it was often operated by W/Cdr Kostohryz and his crew at the very end of WW2 in Europe.
