1:48 P-66 Vultee Vanguard

Post by Cherrylock »

THe P-66 has not the performnce that the USAAF wished, so they gave the a/c to the air national guard and selled som to Taiwan, but they love the P-40 and do not fly the P-66 often.

The kit is from Air Collection, it was the first and only model from this company, the kit was flashed every part and has a crispy surface, no details and bad fit on all parts. Lot of work, so you see not much build kits.

Owl, that is a perfect description! Love it.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..
