DonSS3 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Well, after finishing zero kits last year, I'm ahead of the game this year. First (and hopefully not last) for the year is Lindberg's OA-9 (USN designation, JRF) Goose. Mine is finished as a "what if" postwar Royal Netherlands Navy aircraft. The decals are from a couple of different donor sheets. The national insignia, the tail flash and the small "Kon Marine" markings are from an Aeromaster Sea Fury sheet. The "142" markings and the underwing "Kon Marine" lettering are from a Revell H-34 kit sheet. The red prop warning stripes are from a Hobbycraft Avia S.199 kit. I did add a bulkhead in the aft cabin to prevent the see through effect. I also did the same behind the engines, a black painted plastic sheet disc to prevent seeing into the wing. Replaced the kit's main gear wheels with some from the spares box, P-47 I think. More pics here if anyone is interested: http://s20.photobucket.com/user/DDonSS3/library/Built%20Models/Lindberg%20OA-9%20Goose/Finished As always, comments welcome.so Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Drifterdon Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 (edited) Nice looking Goose. I always wondered how this kit built up. Yours looks good in those markings. Edited January 20, 2016 by Drifterdon Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DonSS3 Posted January 21, 2016 Author Share Posted January 21, 2016 Watch out for the main gear wheels! There are no positive attachment points for attaching the wheels to the legs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dnl42 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Great job on such an old kit. I like that different color scheme. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
