barracuda67 Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Hello dear modelersI would like to introduce you to my new project, a North American RB-45C, 91st Strategic Reconnaissance Wing, RAF Sculthorpe, mid-1952. The kit is from Collect-Aire,1/48 Full Resin, Vaccu Clear - and metal parts. There are not so many components, but a lot of work with the fit. The first test Longer time and a lot of putty and grind later. Slowly goes to the paint. Thanks for looking.Martin Values model builder 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fit is very good. The Vaccu Klarteile are ok. I hope they do not turn yellow over time. The thing is quite weighty and gets pretty big. regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barracuda67 Posted August 10, 2019 Author Share Posted August 10, 2019 Hello It is nearing the end. Removing the masking from the clear parts was a bit persistent, probably a little too long on it. regards Martin 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
