- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Interesting build  :mellow:

Indeed. You've got me thinking of a Wellesley with a turret now for some reason
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

There's more Defiant kits being sold for their turrets than Boulton-Paul ever built in the first place!  ;D

Yea  ;D I was thinking of something a little earlier in style though. Maybe Anson or Hudson type ?

The Revell Halifax III comes with the earlier Boulton-Paul egg turret as well as the Defiant one.

I'm tempted with a Blenheim turret on a Battle, but one with a Hercules.

Dizzy did one a while ago: https://www.whatifmodellers.com/index.php?topic=37647.msg610847#msg610847

Indeed he did  :thumbsup:

A combination of just how prolific he is and just how old my memory is meant I forgot  ;D
