Flyboyf18 Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Took a while to find the kit for my RCAF Postal Fort (insert Canada Post jokes here; ) so I have the cockpit well on the way, need to get decals from CanMilAir and once most of the kit is buttoned up, it shouldn't be too long of a build, I hope!! I have also picked up some of the older Forts to build a few with NO 'Stars & Bars', got the Fort Mk I, Mk II, & MkIII, the RCAF bird and looking to do a Swiss interned Fort. Not much to show in the way of pics but will throw some up later, cheers. Oh and a big thank you to RCAF 100 for his help with pics of 9202, thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shawn M Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 great to see more non American schemes, these aircraft served such a variety of rolls and countries. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bigasshammm Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Sweet another mental patient like me doing more than one Fort! I would love to see someone do one of the captured German schemes I've seen in a few of my books. They look cool as hell but it's almost blasphemous to do a Fort with a swastika on it. Dilemma. There's also some cool Jap versions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dirkpitt289 Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 I had thought about doing a POW Fort but I'm just not ready right now. I have the Assembly ship "Birmingham Blitzkrieg" slated to go next after "Old 666". Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just picked up the Lifeboat Rescue Fort, it's different, coz they bombed victims with a lifeboat!???!??? Jap schemes eh? Got any pics or links to same??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kostucha Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Same here, I can't wait to see some pictures. Which Fort specifically are you building? Mark. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flyboyf18 Posted March 6, 2011 Author Share Posted March 6, 2011 I will be doing RCAF 9202, the one without the cheek windows so I can use my Academy B-17F. Will get the CanMilAir decals and do the Olive Drab over grey version. I would like to use my Revell kit to do one of the Fortress IIIs, an early 'Wild Weasel'?
