oz rb fan 891 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 my latest finished kit(and first for 2021) is a lone star conversion of the monogram P61 ..it has a completely new fuselage pod and boom fronts and cowls i replaced the supplied engines with Quickboost ones and the wheels are from the GWH P61 as the Monogram ones are pretty toy like...it also has the lone star firebomber conversion....it was an interesting build and i am very happy with the final result. 136365259_1466872110174823_1937874212664495051_n by paul sabin, on Flickr 135563076_1466872196841481_7118969983431584692_n by paul sabin, on Flickr 135625392_1466872236841477_3040162190519689716_n by paul sabin, on Flickr 136338696_1466872300174804_3442438830981657199_n by paul sabin, on Flickr 136673900_1466872323508135_5767946357177970539_n by paul sabin, on Flickr and it looks great with my 2 other 1/48 firebombers 136365263_1466664516862249_2048442661132378176_n by paul sabin, on Flickr 41 1 Link to post Share on other sites
dnl42 2,781 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Excellent work on an interesting subject! I think I see an Avenger fire bomber in back; did that also use LSM's resin? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Shorty84 570 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Cool subject. The Reporter is not seen built very often. And a nice collection of Firebombers too Cheers Markus 1 Link to post Share on other sites
TheyJammedKenny! 1,515 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Nicely done, and very cool! I had no idea that the F-15 Reporter persisted long enough as an airframe to warrant its conversion. I guess I should look up whether there are surviving airframes anywhere. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I guess I should look up whether there are surviving airframes anywhere. there was only one,it's the first production airframe and was use for mapping in Mexico till the early 60's then bought back to the US for a tanker conversion..unfortunately it was lost in a crash in 1968. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
