Handley Page Halifax
Originally uploaded by sisaphus
As I mentioned in an earlier post the Fonderie Miniatures 1/48 scale Handley Page Halifax Mk III has been described as "Unbuildable", here is a photograph that disproves that claim.
This Halifax was on the Quarter Scale Group's stand at the East Midlands Model Show, Hinckley, Leicestershire 25th April 2010. I am not 100% certain as to the identity of the builder (If it is your model please contact me and I will be happy to credit you).
Finished as "Friday the Thirteenth" this model shows what can be achieved with the F.M kit by a top class modeller and is and inspiration to other modellers.
I have two of these kits currently under construction (see previous post) and will be charting my progress with them in this blog, I just hope that I can come close to the standards demonstrated with this example.
Certainly the F.M. kit requires a lot of work and is not for the the novice but anyone who has some modelling experience should be able to achieve and acceptable result with some time and patience.
