B-24J Liberator RAAF 1/72

[888]

B-24J Liberator of 7 OTU RAAF Station Tocumwal NSW 1945. 1/72 Hasagawa kit OOB except the 100gm of lead weight. Built this for a good mate who has moved into a retirement place, in Liberator Cresent, NSW and whose dad worked in the RAAF Wagga. Happy with the metal finish - Xtreme Metal by AK

Bloody hell! Top work there. Love the look you've achieved with the AK Extreme Metal finish. Have to put that on the list I think. 

Congrats, that's an outstanding build.

Now that is outstanding work, every millimeter of it!  Did you borrow the U-shaped aerial behind the ADF football from another kit?

Very nice work indeed. Your mate must be thrilled with it. I recently purchased some AK extreme metal, but haven’t tried it yet. Your fine work has put the bee in my bonnet.

 

Cheers

Wonderful work! Very inspiring.

Just a great metal finish with all the tonal variations that play together quite well.  Wonderful work and thanks for sharing.  Your friend should really appreciate the work and effort you put into this kit.

Fantastic work. Seriously impressive finish. I had to keep scrolling back to the top to check the scale. Congratulations!

[Lightningboy2000]

Wow! That's a rather dazzling Liberator! Very nice to see & there's definitely been a lack of B-24's completed on here over the past few years. Very nice to see.

That`s a great result because I have built this exact same kit and I know that nose section is very difficult and challenging and you have it looking perfect.  The AK paints are excellent and this is one to be very proud of.  Congratulations!!!!!

Beautiful job! Just handling that thing, while applying the bare metal finish could not have been easy.
