Upon seeing some nice TBD-1s lately I'd thought I'd add mine. Revell box with Eduard pe, vac canopy, and Starfighter's decals. I used raised rivets from Archer transfers. The Devastator really looks nice with all the raised detail from the kit. This is from my earlier days, so forgive the poor photos and the smudges on the canopy

There are never enough TBDs on here for my tastes another nice one!

Thanks for the good words guys. Jim- the archer rivets worked pretty well. As u can tell they do leave a bit of carrier film, so setting solutions are needed. Lay them down over the bare plastic after all ur filling and sanding is done. Then prime right over them. Archer gives you a great selection of sizes but they are spendy.

Oh my goodness, that is stunning. One little, two little, three little rivets.....four little, five little, six little rivets...well anyway, whose counting.

Interesting...

I'm curious to know how well the rivets worked for you....ease of use? I want to grab some (Archer or HGW) for projects.

Where's yours, sir?

Yes, I really love the rivets too... the real TBD was covered in them! I need to try those Archer rivets on the TBD that I still have in my stash...

and since you asked...
