Airfix 1/48 Blackburn Buccaneer S.2B Operation Red Flag 1977

Hi all, hope all of you NZ based folk are making the most of this soggy Saturday, well it is in the mid/upper north island at least.

I've broken the seal on the Airfix 1/48 Blackburn Buccaneer S.2B for an Operation Red Flag 1977 airframe, and not the one in the box.  Here's my latest video for the YouTube channel
explaining the reasons, why and therefore's, enjoy!

Bananas, Bananas!!!

Well after a couple of nights, cutting, sanding, spraying, video editing, here’s when I’m at so far with the Buccaneer build.

Eduard and Neomega parts sprayed and looking better than anticipated, ie the Neomega parts and seats.  The Eduard seats still seem too big and the detail appears a little bland.

All paints used were SMS apart from
my trusty Mr Color 1500 Finishing Primer. Just some adjustment to be made on the top of the parachute packs as the tan is too light.  On to detail hand painting after that.

Part 2 of the Bucc build saga is being edited currently and should be up on the channel by the weekend.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Looking good! Really want to get this kit at some stage.

Just dropped the third video in the Airfix 1/48 Buccaneer S.2B build series onto my YouTube channel, check it out!
