tony o Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Hiya Folks, As I`ve been asked to post some of my `back list' here are my two Trumpeter Avenger`s, converted into a Mk.II belonging to the Eastern Fleet during the Palembang Raid and a Mk.III of the British Pacific Fleet in Australia just after VJ Day. First the Mk.II; This Avenger was credited with shooting down a Japanese fighter during the Palembang Raid. Here is the Mk.III; The radar pod under the wing was made from the kits torpedo and the clear bulges were (poorly!) vacuformed using the waist windows from a Monogram B-29 as a guide. The lower engine cooling gills are incorrect for this version (equivalent to the TBM-3E) but I retained the kits gills after my attempt at building alternatives failed drastically! Hope you like them, Cheers Tony 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
