The next one of my projects will be the RAAF Boomerang by Special Hobby, a mix of plastic and resin. 🙂

Sergej I
Interesting and unusual topic 🙂 👍

Guy Rump
Made a start on the Boomerang, the cockpit is a fair number of pieces. The internal main colour is Vallejo BS Interior Green. 🙂

Welcome along Sergej, hopefully it will go together in a decent fashion! . 👍

Many thanks mates for your interest and likes Sergej I & Matti T. 👍

Moreno Baruffini
Following! I have just added it to my stash, and I also noticed that the cockpit is made by a lot of pieces!!!!!

Djordje Nikolic
Me too!

Guy Rump
After quite a bit of to-ing and fro-ing, I managed to get the cockpit in and the fuselage together. Wings went together ok. 🙂

Welcome Moreno, Nicolas & Djordje! 👍

Patrick Hagelstein
Looking good Guy! I kinda like the stubby purposeful shape of a Boomerang.

Guy Rump
Wings were added to the fuselage. Filler added to several parts but not too much. 🙂

Thanks for your kind comment Patrick, it was definitely a strange shape for its time! 👍

Excellent work. How was the build?

Guy Rump
Many thanks for your kind comment Dave. The build was really good except for trying to fit the cockpit into the fuselage which was quite difficult. Definitely recommended. 👍

Cool build
Awesome job sir

Mark Sherwood
Excellent build/paint Guy. Much better than the Airfix 1.72 I suspect.

Guy Rump
Very many thanks Mark & Tcamp for your kind comments, I haven't built the Airfix version as yet Mark... 👍

Many thanks mates for your interest and likes Zhidong Li, Bozo, Nils S, Petr K, Dave, SM, Alberto M, Tcamp & Mark S. 👍

Mark Sherwood
The Airfix kit is from my Yoof' it came out in the mid sixties, built it in the seventies. So you can guess what it was like. 🥸🤘😅🤟🥸

George Williams
Looking great so far.

George Williams
Looking great so far.

George Williams
The decals look really good.

MS K
Thanks George. As expected, the quality of Cartograf decals is top notch 🙂

Robin (WhiteGlint)
This looks great! Decals look like painted on.
I really should start sanding down the gloss coat/decals like you did. In your comment you've written that no polishing is necessary. Will you just apply snew gloss coat over top after cleaning it a bit more?

MS K
Thanks Robin.
Llivery of this car is matt 😉 The reason I did the sanding though is because even with a matte surface, removing the steps in the decal will create a smoother looking curve.
