tonyot Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I love the paintwork, the best representation of the US Navy tri colour scheme on a Ventura that I`ve seen yet! I`ve built a few of these myself (three,..but in British Commonwealth markings!) and I agree with you that the only fiddly bit is the bomb bay but that it is a fantastic kit. For those who have not built one,...why not,...just be careful with the cockpit as I`m sure that the cockpit bulkhead is wrong and some had co pilots seats and others didn`t, depending on whether they had received the US Navy modification kit. Well done on a lovely model, Cheers Tony O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russ c Posted September 1, 2012 Author Share Posted September 1, 2012 Thanks very much everyone for your kind comments and for looking, to be honest you can`t see too much of the bulkhead . I`m looking foward to the glass nose issue, hope it`s not too long coming, probably do it as another Aleutian Bird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
