Italeri 1/48 A-20B Boston III Free French


Recommended Posts

Just finished this for a group build, but thought I'll share it here for all to see. This was OOB apart from some etched seat belts.

Decals were the biggest issue for this kit, no matter how many gloss coats and setting solution they would just not stop silvering, decided to go over the top with weathering to hide the silvering, which kind of worked.

Love the A20 Boston, the invasion stripes look spot on and a good colour scheme choice.

Really great build sir!

This is a good looking and impressive model. I would be very happy to get such a result!

My only (small) criticism pertains to the blue of the French rudder strip and roundels, that appears far too bright. Only a personal opinion, but that's the French for you: we always have to find something to criticise!

A great job !

I think it looks great, nice choice for the scheme and the paint on the

transparencies is especially well done, overall you've made a wonderful

model,

Sean
