Avro Vulcan B2 1/144 (GWH+Shelf Oddity)
This is my rendition of the early Vulcan B2 XH556 depicted as in No.230 OCU Finningley, ca 1962. The Pit-Road/GWH kit and excellent Fundekals decal set inspired me to tackle the Vulcan subject. To portray the early B2 airframe the kit had to be backdated a bit – the nose cone and a tail-tip antennaes as well as in-flight refuelling probe had to be removed. Hopefully the coming GWH Blue Steel release will make things easier. The by-product of this build is the ShelfOddity PE set. MrColor GX Cool White and GX100 Super Clear III lacquers, which allowed for easy surface polishing, made the painting a relatively straightforward task.
All that white is very well done, Marek!
Beautiful build, my friend...looks like it's pretty good sized for that scale. I like it.
impressive
Sweat looking bird. A cold war beauty for sure.
Really nice result.
Hey Airfix! Do this in 1/72 at this quality level! Please...
A real beauty! Hard to believe it's 1/144. Well done.
A beautiful job on a cold war warrior!

Very nice work Marek … when one considers the scale … even more gratifying is this one too see.
Very nice, I have an old 1/72 scale Airfix half built, but now I'm thinking about buy a new 1/144, seriously...
Great job!
Thank you for the kind words!
