I had decided to build Roden's 1/144 DC-3, which is my favorite aircraft. While retrieving it from the stash, I recalled I also had Brengun's 1/144 Texaco Doodlebug (a.k.a., 1933 Diamond T fuel truck), so I grabbed that too. On the way to my desk to post the chat, I saw Roden's box art actually had the Doodlebug in the background! I don't believe I had noticed that before, but this build was clearly meant to be. Here's the lot Roden's C-47 series should be well known; this is the DC-3 boxing, so it has a different fuselage Note the small cargo door. The other parts are the usual suspects Hm, I just noticed the cockpit glazing broke off the fret; no worries, I have it. And here are the decals, they look pretty good! Here's Brengun's Doodlebug Looks like there are two copies of the cab glazing. And some eety beety PE. And are AIM's steps I'll put all the above on a base. Google tells me I have a hope to find some figures. Thanks for looking!

I just had a catch-up, and that looks excellent!

That looks good all dressed up!

Excellent work on that! I'm particularly impressed with the brush painting.

Welcome aboard!

50 years? For reals? Seriously, that's quite good--head and shoulders above my 1st kit after starting again.

Noice!

Welcome aboard!

Welcome aboard!

Very well done. Bravo!

Nice! This is a transport!

Nice work on the model! And, I do so love your minding-bending photos!

Dang, that is outstanding! The only clue this is a photo of model is it lacks depth of field. Do you happen to have an unpainted shot similar to this?

I'll be building Roden's 1/144 Douglas DC-3 as well as Brebguns's 1/144 Texaco Doodlebug. As I'll put them on a base, AIM's 1/144 DC-3 steps will be in the mix. And look what we have here, they're both on Roden's box art!

She's looking good! That is just a gorgeous vehicle.
