Re: My TBM Avenger

I like the detail in the bomb bay....because I have been a Torpedoman in the Navy for the last 23 years, looking at that Avenger was driving me crazy. Did you have any troubles getting the Torpedo out?

Re: My TBM Avenger

Looks good, but shouldn't the wheel well be painted the same color as the torpedo bay? This fix has me thinking about getting one of these as well to go with the HM ones whenever they come out.

Re: My TBM Avenger

trust me I did alot of research on this planes colors the wheels wells on several that I saw and inner landing gear doors were white. I though the gear struts were another color too but not on the plane I used for reference. There are so many variations but the colors that you see other than IXO factory applied are correct.

Re: My TBM Avenger

Nice touch-ups Louie. My Avenger arrived with very thin paint under the rear stabilizers. Did you have the problem with yours? Also does anybody know what carrier #95 might be from?

Re: My TBM Avenger
