I haven't seen one of these in a hot minute. I've heard it's a very good kit. Looking forward to seeing more.

Tom, here is a link to my Revell Stearman build. I used to fly a PT-13 and pretty much remember where all them wires go, and the javelins. And all the bugs to clean off after every flight!

I mixed my own color for the propeller. Aluminum, Imperial Grey, and a little bit of Duraluminum

Looking good Tom, the prop colour looks nice.

What sort of size it this in 1/48?

Thank you. This helps tremendously. :bow:

I've changed my mind on the color scheme. I've decided to do the US Navy version.

Well... stretched sprue isn't gonna work. :bored:

Gonna use some silver wire I have. Currently stretching them straight using weights and tacked to the wall. Yeah... that's what MacGuyver would do :giggles:

Well... this one crashed and burned and gone into the trash. Accidently dropped and stepped on it. Too busted up too fix. Pretty much toast. :scream: :scream: :scream:
