Old Monogram B-26

[JohnB]

I've had this kit for a good while and have worked on it some from time to time. I decided to re-start it and hopefully finish the build this time. It's a good kit even with the raised panel lines.

Beautiful start on the kit!  I love this airplane!

I figured the time was right to get back on this one. It's been sitting partially done for quite a while. 🙂

Coming along. A fair amount of sanding and puttying is needed.

Agreed, thanks.

Painting under way. Invasion stripes with Tamiya and undersides with Xtracolor. Uppers will also be Xtracolor. 🙂

Looking good John I have the the ICM in the stash  but need more storage room...cabinet space.

I'm short on space too Kevin. I've been putting some of them away in boxes. At least it keeps them from getting dusty!

Here's the a/c I'm building. A little out of the usual. 🙂

Painting coming along well so far. I'm not real sure I like the Medium Green but I figure it'll look alright after decaling and over spraying with clear flat. Fingers crossed. 🙂

Looking good John,

 I had both the Monogram and the AMT ERTL versions of the B-26 but never got round to building either of them, they both went in a big stash clearout.

This is a shame as I have always liked the sleek racer like looks of the real thing.

Looking forward to more.

Cheers

Thanks Dennis. I'm getting ready to start decaling but I'll have to come up with enough "U's" of the correct size, etc. I'll probably have to make them on my computer. 🤪

Thank you! The Tamiya 10mm masking tape is just about the right size for them which makes it a lot easier.🙂

Time for some decaling. 😃
