maverick_62 Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Grumman Avenger TBF-1C 1/48 Accurate miniatures kit plus Eduard BigED, despite the age it's still the best model of this aircraft, IMHO of course. Nothing to say about build process by itself, no any issues was found. The only moment color scheme. I know the upper surfaces must have a more gray tones, and in my representation they are more blue than gray... the boxart a bit confused of me... Thank you for looking. 61 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farmerboy Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Brilliant build of the Avenger, way ahead of its time when first issued and still up there with the best today, good job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maginot Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Nicely rendered model. Detailing of the cockpit looks marvelous. Well painted. I like the weathered panel lines on the dark upper surfaces, less so on the white surfaces. I'm beginning to question the current trend to emphasise panel lines.

kapam Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Exquisite! Even though I'm a 1/72 builder, I love to see a Grumman Avenger build in any scale. That is superb! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin-42 Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Great work! I only occasionally build in 1/48 but do have this one in the stash. Builds like yours remind me why I can’t get rid of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binbrook87 Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Wow! Now that's impressive. Nice to see a slightly different paint finish (Atlantic scheme?). The weathering is superb, very realistic and effective in breaking up the white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In some mind yes, with the one exception, Atlantic scheme imply a dark gull gray as one of the colors, well and i allowed a little bit free interpretation of this.
