RAF Liberators

I'm a coward when it comes to sharing my stuff, I model mostly for the art ,accuracy plays 2nd place and I see too many trolls on the various forums who will spend more time belittling a kit for it's shortcomings than they do actually building it, this puts me off posting outside of my comfort zone. I have people tell me my stuff is good but to be honest I still lack confidence, this is my 1st push and you'll probably see it posted over Facebook a lot. At least I've got my 5 minutes of fame, it's all downhill from here 
I've posted the build log on Facebook and a couple forums, someone said I should post over here as well. So I went to what I thought was LSP only to realise after I'd post that I'd posted on the other Large Scale site, I'm member of both and Chrome just logged me in, so if you see the same post over there it's not because I'm a posting whore lol

Hey folks,
I'm normally a lurker here, I don't tend to post outside of my regular sites just read other peoples stuff. But I've been told I should post this over here so here I am, cap in hand showing you my finished bird. It's out the box and yes I'm fully aware of all the shortcomings of the kit, Davis Wing, Turrets yardy yar etc etc  
I've put Master Model Barrels on it and some RB belts, not that you can see them, but other than that she's El Naturel
Finished in Alclad, Gunze and Ushchi metal powders, weathered with Mig products.
Thanks for looking and be gentle.........

It was an absolute doosey to build it literally fell together, most of the kit was almost push fit, it went together that well. I was able to build the whole cockpit area and all the interior as dry fit then take it apart and paint it.
I'm definitely going to be getting at least one more of these and the D, the D I'll do as a Mk. III in RAF use, either as Coastal Command or 205 Group.

I'm a coward when it comes to sharing my stuff, I model mostly for the art ,accuracy plays 2nd place and I see too many trolls on the various forums who will spend more time belittling a kit for it's shortcomings than they do actually building it, this puts me off posting outside of my comfort zone.

That's a really terrific build, Gary! You should post your stuff here more often!
 
Kev

That's a remarkable model, the finish is stunning - hats off
And yes, you should post here more often!
 
Lothar

Agree with LSP Kevin, you should post your builds. 
 
That if one fine B-24. Nice to see what is possible OOB and this build really shows that. 
 
Cheers
Collin

Welcome aboard Gary!
It's definitely a very nice looking B-24 Liberator! Thumbs up!
How was the build? Fit etc?
Maybe the OOB approach of this kit is the best way to go...
 
 
Cheers: Kent

Thanks for posting.
Just a superb build and great finish.
I guess it builds up pretty nicely after all despite what some have said.
 
First one I've seen completed and that sets a very high standard for the rest.
Well done!
