I just ordered two Airtex fine canvas prints. You'll soon find out why.

I have several of these charts my uncle gave me, issued to him when he flew A-26s at St. Trond.

Framed them in my library amongst many pics of that time, early 1945.

Great idea... (again!)

Aaah Sint-Truiden! That’s pretty cool. I guess that means you need to build an A26!

I did build a Monogram A-26C, withe 386th BG markings...  starting to get a grip on my airbrush and nmf finish.  Have the ICM with decals for one he flew, in line for build.

I visited St Truiden in 2015, looked just like the 1945 photos!

Got the maps printed on special fine canvas. Cut them in corners so they look like carelessly overlapping maps. Might glue them with wood glue and finish overall with lacquer.

The Tamiya jeep will have eduard upgrades, some resin stowage and Alpine figures.

[GazzaS]

I like the map idea.  

[levier]

Nice...

[JeroenPeters]

More work on the jeep...

That’s amazing. Glad you framed it!

Jeroen as usual, blooming ingenious.........

[JeroenPeters]

The Jeep is lovely. The Eduard set in places challenging.

Back to your old roots buddy?

[Kaireckstadt]

This is going to be a great looking diorama, Jeroen! Beautiful enhancement to the Do and the Jeep! 
Cheers Kai

First paint on the jeep. Several shades of olive drab.

The Alpine figures fit great.

Masked the instrument dials with liquid mask from AK

 

 

[JeroenPeters]

Basic colours done. Now for the canvas and seats.

[GazzaS]

Rocking it!

[JeroenPeters]

More work on the jeep. Decals on. Matt coat on. Ready for washes and weathering. The figures recieved some primer.

Looks awesome. What is the passenger holding in his hand? Cellphone?

That looks great, Jeroen! Your diorama is based on a photo I know of the Watson Whizzers capturing a single seat aircraft in Germany at the end of WWII, isn‘t it?
