Karl Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 (edited) My Revell 1/48 PV-1 Ventura - GR.V is finally complete. This has been quite an interesting build, one where I've used more after market parts and decals than on any other kit I've built to date and I think this is one of my favourite builds so far. I've tried to build it as faithfully as I can to the Aviaeology instructions and to the reference pictures I have, however my only little bit of licence is that I didn't install the wheel hub caps; I like the Eduard Brassin wheel hub too much to cover them up. I might paint them and put them next to the model! The Work in progress can be found here: Revell 1/48 PV-1 Ventura - GR.V 8 (BR) Squadron Hope you like it!

Radleigh Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Lovely model, I really need to build mine. I love a Lockheed twin. Awesome job Karl! It is how I imagine mine to look if I ever get it finished! So many airplanes, so little time!
