wdedig Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 Here are some photos of a Texan built to present to a friend of mine whose father is in the back seat. The kit was out of Box and I used Alclad for the the finish. Left all those wonderful rivets proud.

ghodges Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 Beautiful NMF! As for the rivets, that's actually quite authentic for that time period. Nice Texan! GIL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildBill50 Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 Nice build! I just started doing this kit as an SNJ-5 Navy bird. I'm also buiding it for a friend of mine who owns one and flies it on the airshow circuit. I hope mine comes out as nice as yours as it is part silver lacquer and sea blue. I hate painting silver. Anyway great job. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
