Hi, Recently I refresher or repaired my old three builds. First is Martin Baltimore. This is a Frog kit in Stormo Baltimore Italian colors. I followed the color profile presented in the Blandfor publ. "Bombers 1939-45" book . I did this model in years 1975-77 so when I was a teenager in secondary school. Now I replaced decals (Italian insignia), washed it and applied a matt varnish Vallejo coat. I added a tail wheel lost to some reason in a span of last 45 years... It has an overpainted British markings and to frank I am surprised how precisely I was able to paint it without help of any masking! The all exploitation/weathering signs is also original Here she is: This blue my camera reproduces a bit strange, the look of exact hue of mine Azure Blue is closer to reality on previous photos, when some small areas covered with this color are seen. Second one is another Martin - the Marauder. This is an Airfix kit with hand painted nose arts. I did it in 1997, apparently I did not known that the same scheme since 1994 was in Revell box of Marauder... The kit is overloaded with lead, it weight 190 g, so in time the main u/c was sveral time broken. Yesterday i drilled it through an but steel wire inisde, I hope now it will stand witjout problems. Here she is Of course the nose arts were painted on decal, similar like the "Hard to get" names. Thisr oldi is my very old (1973-75) Bloch MB 152. Recently I cut the landing gear to make it shorter by perhaps 3 mm. Besides was I painted it with varnish. I was talkin with @AdrianMF recently about this model. It is not nice build like his recent build but i want to show it just to illustrate. Besides shorter legs it has also a hand painted amblems on both sides of tail, and this is the reason I like to keep it still Comments welcome Regards Jerzy-Wojtek
