TimW Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Everybody's favorite Jug...with extra jugs! Finished this not too long ago while taking a break from aircraft with rigging. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimW Posted April 11, 2011 Author Share Posted April 11, 2011 And a few more. This was OOB with only Eduard seatbelts added. Decals by Zotz--thank goodness for them! It's amazing how FUBAR Trumpeter decal sheets can be--their efforts to misspell and otherwise mangle the nose art in this kit were truly epic.

Hartmann352 Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Very Nice!! My Favorite decal set, wish I could get me hands on one. The tail....all paint? Looks great! Cheers, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Dave The yellow bits are paint--the black stripes come with the Zotz set. All I had to do was a bit of trimming and some touch up. While these markings weren't in use long, I wanted to show this particular aircraft toward the end of hostilities (July 45), when they redid the tail markings and added the nose art to the left side.

DoogsATX Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 (edited) Awesome! UPS just gave me this very kit yesterday...I'd made a very slight start on the Academy 1/48 kit before deciding I didn't have time to knock it out before the move...but I think the big Trumpy will probably take its place at the bench once I get things up and running again. I'll be coming back to check this one out again for sure when the time comes. Need to grab the Zotz set as well...though I so wish the Expected Goose markings were available in 32nd. Probably my favorite nose art of all time: Edited October 15, 2011 by DoogsATX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
