Response to Softskin! Tamiya Tilly - RAF

A lovely build, But unfortunately you are the latest victim of Tamiya's Tilly colour scheme scam.

This model of Tilly was never used by the RAF. And the other model Tillys that were used by the RAF (mainly Standards not Austin IIRC) should be be painted in either the two browns scheme or the later green black camo.The Blue scheme was abandoned by the RAF prior to mass use of the Tilly in early 1940 and was restored in 1948.

Tamiya based its in box colour scheme on a Restored Tilly that was catostophically incorrectly painted and marked...............!

Sorry!

Still a great build though!
