Are you sure that's not a Meteor with longer wings?  ;)
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

That was my concern when I was sourcing new nacelles.  Too fat and it would look like a Meteor.
However, fitting the stabs will increase the levels of Canberricity.

Canopy (just posed in place) is a Beaufighter rear canopy.
The entire nose forward of the IP is full of Heavy Glue but it still tail sits.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Looking great! Are you going to add guns?

It has a belly pack with guns in already.  I may add barrels.  Depends on the back story.

I think all the RW B(I)6s and B(I)8s had recessed gun ports, but this is Whiff World.....

How about a Molins cannon, or two....?

Given its half scale (1/144 scaleoramaed to 1/72) the length of the belly pack is halved so the barrel would stick out of the front.

Eerrrrm, I THINK those maths work, but I'm not 100% sure.  ;D

And wouldn't it be 'barrels', there being a few of them in there?

Primer. No putty yet, but it needs a shed load.
