russ c Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Hi everyone, Thought I`d bother you with some photo`s of my latest completion My attempt at Tamiya`s 1/48 early George kit Finished in the markings of 341st Naval Fighter Group of the 402nd Fighter Squadron As usual, done almost completely OOB with just a few improvements here and there, including............ seat belts, engine harness, drilled the lightening holes out in the seat and opened up the gun barrels Decals are the kits and I resisted the temptation to go really overboard with the weathering as I figured....... ...they must have looked somewhere between brand new and wrecked at some point in their lives. Hope you enjoy the pic`s, thanks for looking Cheers Russ 36 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hewy Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Smashing job russ, it makes a nice change to see one that hasn't had the paint chipped to within an inch of its life 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fubar57 Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Looks great. I've built two Hasegawa kits; may have to pick up a Tamiya 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acinonyx Jubatus Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Another fantastic build I have been pondering wether to get one of these for a while now, I think the quality of your build has made my mind up to get one Totally agree with your comments about the weathering too, by the way 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
