Revell 1:48 Vega Ventura Museum Exhibit


Recommended Posts

Hello folks. Allow me to present the latest addition to my very own very tiny aircraft museum, The Revell Vega Ventura in the markings of Slippery Sam of No.1(BR) Sqn of the RNZAF.

(To save space in the exhibition hall we decided not to restore the outer wing panels)

Hi Don,

 

That has to be one of the (excuse the french :D) Bl**dy best RNZAF models I have seen!!!

Well executed, Roundels are (to me) spot on. The diorama that you have created, certainly makes it

a living model. Well done :thumbsup:

 

Thanks for sharing with us

 

Regards

 

Alan

Thank you. Crew figures are very effective at bringing models to life.

Now that's something you don't see every day, cool !

It helps you appreciate how little room there is inside as well.

Cheers

Yes, no place for the claustrophobic. And the Venture is quite a big one compared to many twins.
