fightnjoe Posted May 7, 2018 Author Share Posted May 7, 2018 Well a brief update is in order. The time is here to throw a bit of paint at the white pieces. My normal is a black under coat and then the main color. I did some research and found that Liberators had a mix of colors but a couple of sources show Dull Dark Green for the forward sections, Aluminium for the bomb bay, and Interior Green for the aft sections. I went with this. Then the detail painting began. I threw some dry brushing on as well to give it just a bit of wear. Like I said just a brief update but turning a corner. Next will be to continue to permanently attach the detail pieces. All comments, critiques, and criticism are encouraged.

fightnjoe Posted May 24, 2018 Author Share Posted May 24, 2018 How about a very brief update. The interior of the Revell 1/48 B-24D is near complete. Just a couple of tidy up type of things to do. I have also finished off the wings. Still a ways to go but closer to the end than the beginning at this point. And now a bit of news. Beginning this update pictures will be minimal. I spoke at length to a magazine editor recently and he is interested in this build. I am allowed to show teasers but not the whole shooting match. I agreed to this and am honored he likes my work.

Out2gtcha Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 That is a hell of a busy looking interior! Well done, it looks amazing. I wouldn't have wanted to be the crew that had to regularly crawl or sit-n-scoot through that center section over the bomb bay on any kind of regular basis.

Basilisk Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 Some seriously nice scratch building happening here with great results As you encourage comments, critiques, and criticism I like to mention one thing. After all the great work you done on the interior, I find the engines a bit underwhelming. Why not use your scratch building skills on them as well? Cheers, Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aircommando130 Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 That fuselage looks really busy! Paintwork is awesome with the fading! Dang magazine rstrictions.....was looking forward to more progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fightnjoe Posted June 2, 2018 Author Share Posted June 2, 2018 Just a brief update on the 1/48 Revell B-24D. The fuselage is closed and the wings are there but not glued, maybe not at all. Only real issues have been with the tail. I have split the lower section four times and the upper twice. More to come. All comments, critiques, and criticism are encouraged.
