Dirk Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 New to the LSM Forum. Here my last airplane kit I finished 3 1/2 years ago. Since a few days ago, I had lost my mojo. I gave it a special treatment. Raised rivets from Archer. Dirk 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocRob Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 I second Martin, your Avenger is beautiful. I always liked the tri tone camo best, it's such a great canvas for weathering, which you mastered perfectly. BTW, welcome to LSM Dirk and make yourself comfortable among us.

Cheers Anthony Thanks Anthony. I worked 10 months on it. Nervwrecking at some points. The kit itself is good. But what I planned with those raised rivets an extra details...I wouldn´t do it again. Painting it was the most fun. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
