JohnB Posted March 23, 2021 Author Share Posted March 23, 2021 I had overlooked the white stripes on the wings. Looking at photos and art in "Rampage of the roaring 20's" you can see some of the a/c had them and some did not. I wonder if it was a tactical marking or sealing tape as it's on the top and bottom of the wings. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnB Posted March 25, 2021 Author Share Posted March 25, 2021 About done with the decals. Next is a overspray with clear flat then start weathering. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They snuggled down well after I applied some Micro Sol setting solution to help them a bit. Just to be sure! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnB Posted March 29, 2021 Author Share Posted March 29, 2021 This one is done. Pics to follow. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnB Posted March 29, 2021 Author Share Posted March 29, 2021 FINISHED AMT/Ertl 1/48 A-20G, 312th BG. Paints, as mentioned previously, are all Model Master. The interior green is my own MM mix. After market used was the Vector cockpit set and True Details wheels. Decals are from Zotz. The model went together really well with no real bad fit problems. I hope y'all like it! 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
