russ c Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Hi Everone, Just completed my latest `Secret War` build, so I thought I`d share some pic`s Rodens T-28D kit, built to represent an aircraft used by the RLAF during the South East Asia conflict and actually the first `D` I`ve built from the `D` boxing Mostly from the box but added bomb load from a Hasegawa weapons set and..... decals from; Hobbycraft Beaver, the stash and a few from the kit the only other additions are scratch built gunsight and some seat belts Hope you enjoy looking at, Cheers Russ 42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goon Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 That's great Russ, a very interesting type. And after 40 years as an aviation enthusiast, I am pretty sure I've never seen that roundel before! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kampartiger Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Beautiful,simply beautiful especially in the not often seen camo of the RLAF.I sincerely hope your next Trojan project will be a Filipino AT28D or otherwise known in the Philippines as a 'Tora Tora'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

russ c Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 Lovely job, you must have quite a collection. FF Cheers FF, I`ve only a few dedicated to the secret war in Laos in particular; I`ve a Cessna Bird Dog and a T-28 done as Raven FAC`s, another T-28 in 606th SOS camo`, B-26K Nimrod, Cessna Skymaster in black and a Green Hornets Huey at the moment. I want to add some Air America stuff ie Helio Couriers, Dorniers, Volpars etc but they`re not made by anyone at the moment. Thanks to everyone else for looking and nice comments 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

russ c Posted February 17, 2014 Author Share Posted February 17, 2014 As ever Russ that is an excellent build and a lovely finish. How was the kit? cheers Rick Thanks Rick, The kit`s not too bad, soft thick plastic, some flash and ejector stubs, but goes together with only a small amount of filler. I managed it so it can`t be too hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
