De Havilland Mosquito NF. Mk.II
1May 28, 2017Start of my next project Mosquito NF MkII
2May 28, 2017All parts in the box. Still old tooling despite the new box, but not too bad.
3June 10, 2017Flight deck is plain and simple.
4June 10, 2017Scratch build a platform behind the navigators seat to cover up the emptyness and create a place for radio equipment
5June 10, 2017Works out fine with some Evergreen.
6June 10, 2017Testfit to make sure fuselage halves still fit.
7June 10, 2017Touch of interiorgreen. I used humbrol 78 as a close match
8June 10, 2017Radio equipment partly from the kit and from my sparepart box
9June 10, 2017Looks ok for me. Pilot and navigator figures will be added later
10June 10, 2017Painting started of the 1:72 scale figures. Next to the Mosquito flight crew I'm also working on the Airfix RAF emergency set, so these figures are taken care of at the same time
11June 10, 2017Main landing gear doors show some serious ejector pin marks. As they are visible I had to fill them in with putty and sand them smooth
12June 10, 2017Main landing gear. rather fiddely job to work on.
13June 10, 2017Each wing contains a landinglight which has to be put in place before assembly of the winghalves. I've put in the glazing and on the inside a small piece of Bare metal foil does the trick.
14June 10, 2017Landinglight seen after the wing is fixed together
15June 10, 2017Working on the crew of my Mosquito. I use one of the crewmembers left over from my Airfix Defiant project.
16June 10, 2017The other one is from the Mosquito kit itself, so I will have two guys with full legs.
17June 10, 2017Also my first go with the new oilbrusher from Mig
18June 10, 2017Looks like a mascara set, but it really works clean and precise. Keep in mind this is oilpaint, so it takes longer to dry.
19June 10, 2017Results are fine. Bare in mind this is 1/72 scale
20June 10, 2017
21June 10, 2017So, started out working on the main landing gear, which as stated is quit fiddely.
22June 10, 2017To prevent the propshaft falling backwarts after closing the engine cowling, I decided to put a little angled strip right behind it. This makes sure I can fit the propellor later in good fashion without the risk of dropping the small pin in the cowling
23June 10, 2017slowly getting there
24June 10, 2017Two wings allmost ready

Christian KellerHello Ferry, beautifully built. I have already built this kit, you can find it under projects 😉

Ferry Dierckxsens 著者Thank you Christian. I've looked at your build as well and looks wonderful too. Nice to see that we can make a nice model from an older kit as well. By the way, your other night fighters are great too.
