GB-61 1/48 Buccaneer S.2 - Carrier and Maritime Aircraft

I decided to go with the Aerocraft 3D Buccaneer seats which look way better then the kit seats . Only thing is they dont have the loaction box on the back to mount on the bulck heads . I used some plstic stock to make some , test fitted and perfect ! Now to make up my mind if I'll use the Aerocraft ejection seat pulls or the Quinta Studio set ejection pulls ? Instrument panel coaming was painted with my own Tamiya mix then drybrush with german gray . Crew ladders assembled and i added a piece pof place for extra brace . Speed brake cleaned up and assembled . I origanlly drilled out the holes for the wing mounted , Looking closely at the markings i chose this plane does not have them so i have to fill the mount holes in .

Those seats are very impressive right out of the box.
 
Busy couple of days on the Buccaneer . Installed the HUD and coaming . The Aerocraft seats was sprayed with mr surfcer 1500 primer . Once dry you can really see the amazing 3D printed detail . Bottom seat frame color was airbrushed and the black was hand painted . Next I'll start painting the cushins . I was pretty sucessful makng my Tamiya mix for the RAF light aircraft grey which was spray on the slipper fuel tanks . Once the bombs are sprayed with clear gloss il atemp to use the kit decals for the yellow band on the nose. Next to get the windsheild cleaned up and ready to glue on .
