Avro 730


These are in-progress photos of master model components of a 1/144 scale model of the Avro 730 bomber. This was the first model I built under contract to Fantastic Plastic. The decision has been made to rework and improve the basic model. Since the original parts are no longer available, this means reworking one of the kits.
Filename gives the date on which the photo was taken. Mottled coloring indicates different layers of primer (used to give the desired surface finish), and does not indicate surface texture changes.



The original kit parts.

First major modifications showing areas hollowed out, as well as a new part.


Showing new cockpit and bonus.
