1/72 Italeri H21 (flying banana)

Gallery Article by Warren Osborne on June 20 2011

 

This is my Italeri 1/72 H21 (Flying Banana), I have detailed the interior with plastic strip and card to bulk it out a bit, and added a few extras to the cockpit.

I spent some time making sure the glazing fit well after reading a couple of articles about the poor fit.  There is also extra detail in the area where the drive shaft is visible under the mesh at the rear of the fuselage.  

The model has been painted with Tamiya acrylics and weathered with promodeller washes and pastel chalk.

Cheers
