P-38 J Lightning Revell 1:32
MartinSK replied to MartinSK's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Thanks Alan, for all gaps was used only super glue ( for bigger gel version of the superglue with small pieces of plastic in the gap) it is hard to sand, but no cracks, extremely strong connection...for this big and quite heavy model was superglue as filler the best option. Martin -

P-38 J Lightning Revell 1:32
MartinSK replied to MartinSK's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Thank you, yes it is hard to believe that this kits is over 50 years old. And still possible to build into nice model of P-38. This scheme is from first release in 1970 (Richard Ira Bong's "Marge") -
P-38 J Lightning Revell 1:32
MartinSK replied to MartinSK's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Thanks a lot again, I have still some classic kits from this great 1:32 Revell era in my stash. For example in my opinion thier old tool Spitfire mkII or P-40 has excelkent surface and rivet details (maybe better than modern kits with holes instead rivets) -

MartinSK replied to MartinSK's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Thank you, for me was this build nostalgia too as I build rebox of this kit 30 years ago. Still good kit and I am suprised how were people able to produce such a kit without computers and special 3d software. -
P-38 J Lightning Revell 1:32
MartinSK replied to MartinSK's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Thanks a lot, yes it had a lot if big raised rivets like on Titanic, some of them were sanded down but some raised rivets and details looks very good so I left them on the model as I am not good in rescribing. -
Hello, This is old school kit from 1976, with raised panel lines. I like this classic kits as they were good engineered (not too complicated to have more fun and less work and some fit problems are mostly easy to fix). Airbrushed with Revell and Humrol enamels. Only wheels were changed and interior detais added. Martin

Looks like the real thing, fantastic realistic looking weathering....simple perfect. -
Hello I think this is going to be be hard question, but I maybe some fan of Unimog Paris Dakar truck will know the answer. Im building Unimog U1300L Paris Dakar from 1986 with number 610 (K.-F. Capito / J. Capito) from the Revell kit, and I would like to ask you if this Umimog had 3 or 2 seats? (In the kit are just "armchairs" which were never used in rally truck. I found a picture from Unimog 1985 (start number 614 registration plate SI LD 10)where is clearly visible that there are only two seats https://mercedes-benz-publicarchive.com/marsClassic/en/instance/ko/Unimog-triumph-in-Paris---Dakar-Rally.xhtml?oid=4910874 But on Daimler truck Page there is written infomation that Unimog from 1985 with registration plate SI LD 10 was improved for Paris Dakar 1986 by better engine and three Recaro seats. https://www.daimler-truck.com/innovation-sustainability/reliable-connected/unimog-1300l.html But I can not find any picture where is clearly visible that in 1986 had Unimog with reg.plate SI LD 10 (start number 610) three seats? If you have some in your archive which you could share that will be great. Helpful will be also picture of the Unimog's interior (dashboard) fromParis Dakar 1986 and some picture to show that the engine was green? As says Revell instructions. I have added some images of the Unimog (which I am planning to build) with start number 610 which I have found but difficult to judge if there were 2 or 3 seats? Thanks for your help. Martin
