starfighter84 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Hallo to all! I'm glad to present you my last work: a Lockheed PV-1 Ventura in the RNZAF colors. The base kit is the Revell in the 1/48 scale... but I made some modification. The engine nacelles and propellers were wrong in the kit, so I corrected it with the Vector resin set. I also used the following aftermarkets... Ventura001 by valerio, su Flickr Ventura002 by valerio, su Flickr And following... the result after 7 months of work! VenturaEnd05 by valerio, su Flickr VenturaEnd04 by valerio, su Flickr DSC_0544 by valerio, su Flickr VenturaEnd03 by valerio, su Flickr VenturaEnd01 by valerio, su Flickr VenturaEnd02 by valerio, su Flickr VenturaEnd12 by valerio, su Flickr VenturaEnd11 by valerio, su Flickr VenturaEnd10 by valerio, su Flickr VenturaEnd09 by valerio, su Flickr VenturaEnd08 by valerio, su Flickr VenturaEnd07 by valerio, su Flickr VenturaEnd13 by valerio, su Flickr VenturaEnd06 by valerio, su Flickr Hoper you enjoy.

thepureness Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 That is an insanely good build, I'm building this kit at the moment, I've got a WIP up here too. If mine turns out at 10% of how good this is I'll be extremely happy. Legendary work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
