1/48 Hasegawa SBD-4 Dauntless VMSB 233


Recommended Posts

Hello all,

It's been a while since I posted anything. Below are photos (poor quality) of my Hasegawa 1/48 SBD-4. I used the old Eduard (brass unpainted) PE set, Ultracast seats, Master Model .5 calibre and .3 calibre MG barrels, Quickboost life raft, TD wheels. painted with MM enamels, Humbrol gloss coat and sprayed Dullcote. Also used Flory models dark wash. The dive brakes are included in the kit and are a vast improvement on the plastic but are a test of endurance to put together. The RD antenna was scratchbuilt using thin fuse wire. The antenna wire is Ezy line. I finally got my A into G and took some photos. The gunner's canopy experiment didn't work so I left it off after seeing some pictures that showed them without it. Very pleased to say it took a 3rd place at my club's competition on the weekend.

The pictures:
