Atlantic Avenger Finished...


Recommended Posts

Posted

This is AM's 1/48 Avenger. I took it a step further and added a complete interior and removed a section of fuselage so the belly interior could be seen. I used the super PE set, scratchbuilt details and figures from Verllinden. The finish is MM acrylics. I found an actual picture of #21 and modeled the kit after that plane. The weathering portrayed came directly from the picture. Comments and crit welcomed...

Fantastic! As accurate a representation as you're likely to see. . . And a big double ditto on Mr. Knights comment. Great scheme. . .

Wow! That's a very pretty build! I especially like the way you wore off part of the wing walks. The weathering looks spot-on to me; not too heavy and not too light. Congrats on a very nice model! Thanks for posting!

Exceptionally well executed. I'm curious...how long/how much time invested?

 

Thanks James....this one took about 2 months but I spent a lot of time on it during those 2 months. Probably looking at 50+ hours on it.

Nice work!! Looks great!

 

Awesome detail work on the interior...and the wear on the wingwalks really is icing on the cake!

Plane looks great. My only criticism is with the figure, he's to glossy. You need to put some dull coat on his clothes.

Thanks for the kind comments guys...

Nice work!

I too like this scheme more than others I have seen. Great idea with the cut away.
