Re: My B-26s--Large and Small

You have some really fantastic looking models. Any chance you could take some individual shots of your FOV B-26?

Re: My B-26s--Large and Small

No problemo, CC.

Here are three shots of the FOV B-26. As you may have noted on the UK forum, several members got examples of this model that looked like some Chinese worker threw up on them and then rolled a wheel barrow, or something over the models in a fit of anger. Aside from those hard to keep straight rubber guns and pitot heads, however, my B-26 was fine. The sole issue being a lot of OD overspray on the undersides onto the wings, which I hastily corrected, using slightly lightened strokes of Humbrol No. 64 ( medium sea grey ).

FOV B-26 does not look to bad, might have to hunt down one of these for myself.

Assuming you don't get one of those the Chinese worker threw up on and are willing to retouch the bottom side OD overspray, I'd recommend the FOV B-26, which is a good value for a 1:72nd scale replica.

I have checking my Target for months, but no luck finding one yet.

Re: My B-26s--Large and Small

I have been checking Target every so often also, and have never seen the B 26. I somehow doubt that they carry them, unfortunately.
