Wild Weasel78 Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 (edited) Hi Guys Here is my Korean War Douglas B-26C Invader from Monogram in 1:48 . The Orginal was build as a A-26B-61-DL with 6 Gun Hard Nose, the Serial Number was 44-34546. In the Year 1948 ,the B-26 Marauder out of Service from the USAF and the Invader became the B.

Wild Weasel78 Posted December 9, 2007 Author Share Posted December 9, 2007 (edited) I use True Details Resin Wheels and Quickboost Resin Engine and Cowlings ,but it is not so good. The Parts a little bit to small and not correctet. The Intake under the Glas-Nose was scratch build, the SHORAN Radar is the Turret from the Kit ,but a little bit higher as the Turret with a Evergreen strip. The Model was new engraved but it is a hard job ,he locks very better as the raised. Edited December 9, 2007 by Wild Weasel78 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wild Weasel78 Posted December 9, 2007 Author Share Posted December 9, 2007 The black color was paint in the Korean war 1952-53. I brushed my Invader with Gunze gloss black and Gunze red. The Exhoustpipe was basic Revell 75 and later with Tamiya Smoke and Gunze Oel. I make a small Wheatering(correct ??) by my Invader with Oelpaint. But the pics are better as my not so good English Quote Link to post Share on other sites
