  1. Congratulations Santiago!!! Nice to see your nice builds and thank you very much for sharing new ideas to approach an old classic kit. Cheers from Guatemala!!!
  2. Hi there Uncle Mario!! Fortunately as time went by, you did!!! Keep on modeling!!
  3. I was offered yesterday one of these kit and after read some reports seems the build is not so easy, but anyway will buy it. Congratulations for your nice finished model. Thank you very much for sharing!!
  4. Hi Friend Mike: Have found this thread looking for Martin B-10 info as found it a lot interesting. So, Was wondering if you have done your project about the Martin B-10 variant. Cheers!!!
  5. Hi Jerzy!!! Congratulations for this nice and wonderful build of this beautiful but highly obscure aircraft and its so rare kit rendition. Looks like you have done a nice research and the build reflects itself the love and care you have put into the job you present here. Keep on My Dear Friend, and nice thing to enjoy wayching always nice work. Cheers!!! Luis Alfonso.
  6. The same as you my dear friend!!!
  7. Wonderful build with nice details. Thank you very much for sharing and wish you a quick and great recovery. Keep on friend!!!
  8. Hi My Friend Jerzy!!! Congratulations for both builds.It's a real pleasure to admire another masterpiece from your nice workshop. I have watched both kits and remember when in 1981 a friend and modeling pal got a job opportunity abroad and and sold his collection of built and unbuilt models and got the chance to catch a pair of unbuilt old Revell Thunderbolt kits... those were the days when us modelers were happy and took what came into the kits boxes as "Faith Truth"... 😀 Well, sometime ago, got one old Revell Thunderbolt in the company of the old Spitfire, Corsair and Hurricane kits... Think that without a doubt watching here this oldies enhancing these pages bring us old modelers a big smile in our faces and hearts, is just like a huge happiness spark to get back in our minds moments to bring nostalgia. Thank you very much for sharing. Cheers!!! Luis Alfonso
  9. Hey Duggy: Have watched carefully your link and found the three first pics there are from an early F-10 variant as the aircraft depicted there have the Collect Exhaust System qith only one exhaust peculiar to the B-25B/C/and think early D variant. Was windering to know which unit they belong?...have read in the prints feet there are a "18 CMS 08/43 Esp. Santo" or something, so looking around have found the unit: http://www.warbirdsresourcegroup.org/URG/b25mitchell-WRG-0021503.html "Flying Personnel Of The 18Th Combat Mapping Squadron, Pose Beside The North American B-25 'Bebe Eyes' On Espiritu Santo, New Hebrides. August 1943. [North American F-10]." 18 Combat Mapping Squadron, 4th Reconaissance Group based at Pekoa Airfield, Espíritu Santo, New Hebrides. Thank you very much in advance.
  10. Hey Jerzy: YES, IT IS!!! That's the version I want to build. This is the only profile from this version I watch as many pics give only a guess. Think all the tail is yellow and the aircraft will look really pretty well adorned in these colors. Think will build two, as there was one sample that survived in USAF service until it was deactivated and was the one the USAF Museum got reworked by North American Aircraft to represent the one of the Doolittle Raiders B version...
  11. Hi Again My Friend Jerzy!! Fortunately yes, have had some issues in the last years that made me out of modeling Just doing a little bit here and there but a pic sparked my mind to research this bird, but was not so easy to dig into the info... Anyway, yesterday thought "Why not ask in BM??"... 😉 Will check for the Brazilian Thunderbolt soon and will look how to put here some of my findings to illustrate about that versión peculiarities. Keep on Jerzy!!!
  12. Hey Jerzy!!! You gave me another mod for a recon Mitchell variant to make... 😀 ...Thank ypu very much as it looks nice in these colours!!!
  13. Hi Duggy: Thank you very much. I didn't knew of this one, has a nice info and good ideas about the camera installation. Have read there were THREE nose cameras...other info I have read two and one under the rear of the cockpit and others have that two in the nose and one under the tail...Will check it slowly. Thank you very much for sharing!!!
