(Less?) Awful Anson

The Anson's paintwork, such as it is, has now been completed.  I decided to go for an early-ish war Coastal Command finish and used the decals which originally came with the kit.  The 'windows' aren't great as they already had a fair bit of glue on them (as per the last photo) so the trick is to not look too closely...  A coat of Vallejo matt varnish finished it off.

The Anson is a kit I didn't have 'first time around', so it's nice to finally own one and get to know a bit more about this interesting aircraft. 
In production well before WW2 and widely exported, the last Ansons didn't leave RAF service until 1968!

The poll to nominate the Anson's successor closes soon - the Lancaster is the current front runner but the Hurricane seems to be making a late run.
