Devastator is a torpedo bomber. Maybe looking for a Vindicator. Accurate Miniatures kit is pretty nice

Ah yes…. the Vindicator. Yup…. gotta get that one.
Added the Avenger to my list for Syrcon as well. Found an Academy Battle of Leyte boxing. That boxing has 5 different choices to choose from.

Check your sources for the aircraft you want to build Tom. The Typhoon underwent constant upgrades and not all Car door aircraft had the unshrouded cannons.

All righty then. I guess it don’t matter which cannon barrels I get.

and a Harrier. (never built a Harrier jump jet before )


Whatever you do, DO NOT buy or build the Tamiya kit. It's trash, absolute garbage, worst kit out there.

I’m looking to get the Hasegawa AV-8B Harrier II Plus kit.

Back on track…. I’ve decided to run with using the unshrouded cannons for the car door type instead. It would be a nice comparison to see between shrouded and unshrouded cannons on both types of Tiffy aircrafts.

D-Day stripes are done!

[Stikpusher]

Nicely done! It has that field applied look of the real things.

Very nicely done Tom.

Thank you. This is one of the reasons why I prefer to paint
D-Day stripes than using decals. Decals make them look unrealistic and fake. My motto is, if you're gonna do field applied D-Day stripes, paint'em.

That looks cool. Certainly some extra effort, but well worth it.

LOL.... this isn't the first time I've painted D-Day stripes on an aircraft.
