Joycraft Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Hi guys, This is the RAF D-Day Mitchell based on the excellent 1/48 AM B-25C/D. The kit is very beautiful, but is hard to built. the decal sheet is EaglesCals (EC#25) and I used a Gunze paint. Enjoy René Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jamie Cheslo Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Simply beautiful work, there, Joycraft! I have recently acquired that kit. Tell me, what was difficult about the build? J.C. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Raptor16 Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Dutch planes are always welcome, no matter wich it is Great build! ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Koen L Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Excellent. I have the kit and decals as well and hope mine turns out as fantastic. Unfortunately the decalsheet is not very accurate as pointed out on some reviews on other sites but that doesn't make your build less impressive at all! Koen Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wing_Nut Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Excellent finish Rene!! I love the restraint you've shown accenting the panel lines, very realistic effect Quote Link to post Share on other sites
afterburner Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Nice work on the AM kit, Rene :D You are very talented and I really enjoy the minimal weathering you have done on your builds. Very, very nice! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bill Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Very nice B-25, I really like the exhaust stains, a great job. You cant beat Gunze paints they are so nice to work with, I think Gunze and Humbrol are about the best, Again fantastic build Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Joycraft Posted February 9, 2006 Author Share Posted February 9, 2006 Hello guys, Once again, thank you very much for your good comments. I am happy that you like my work. For now, I don't have more photo (sorry)! I made the photo with the camera of a friend. Perhaps with a forthcoming meeting... My future project (for the six next months): - Tamiya Spit MkI - Revell Sabre Dog F-86D - Hasegawa P-40E All in 1/48. Regards René Quote Link to post Share on other sites

IJ(UK) Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Really like that.... Not meaning to upset anybody in the US, but it is great to see WWII American stuff in alternative markings. Must get around to doing some for m'self. Great model. TFP IJ. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
