Tim Reynaga Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Trumpeter's 1/144 scale LCM(3)! Trumpeter included markings for both a dark blue Pacific LCM and a D-Day boat in grey. I airbrushed it Navy Blue 5-N for the Pacific boat, but I overdid the light grey streaks added for weathering so much that it ended up looking grey. Rather than redo things, I just went with it and added more grey and used the D-Day markings. The only changes I made to the kit were to add a sheet plastic door and handle (the doors weren’t flush-mounted as Trumpeter depicts) and semicircular mounts for the life rings. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bianfuxia Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Nice build! Good luck standing up to operate those two MGs though - the opening scenes of Saving Private Ryan come to mind. Kind of ironic having a life ring on that thing - seems like falling overboard would be a lucky break actually! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
