justplanecrazy Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Hi guys attached are some WIP pictures of my PBY-4 Catalina which is nearly at the painting stage. It is mostly OOB except I have moved the gun hatches forward a scale 2 & half feet as Academy when producing the mould assumed the guns were in the same place as the later-5 Catalina's. A casual glance at early Cats shows otherwise. She will be finished in RAAF markings wearing the somewhat controversial Dark Ocean Blue/ Dark Sea Grey/ Black scheme. Some would say that DOB did not exist, I beg to differ! The wing isn't stuck on yet as a Catalina is far easier to paint with the wing separate. http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a51/justp...PBY-4WIP001.jpg http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a51/justp...PBY-4WIP002.jpg http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a51/justp...PBY-4WIP003.jpg http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a51/justp...PBY-4WIP004.jpg http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a51/justp...PBY-4WIP006.jpg http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a51/justp...PBY-4WIP007.jpg http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a51/justp...PBY-4WIP008.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justplanecrazy Posted June 11, 2008 Author Share Posted June 11, 2008 That's coming along nicely Nick , what are you doing for decals, is there a sheet out there for this scheme? All decals from the spares box, not to difficult big MSG 'C' for the tail code grey serial & the roundels & fin flash. Glad you like it more picture soon.
