Great lookin dio!! Nice busy look and tons of details. I bet a lot of folks would think this was the 48 scale kit. Well done!

Nice job on your build. The port side insignia does look upside down, though.

CNQ and Famvburg -

As I check panel line engravings of this model, they are identical to my Revell Germany kit purchased about one year ago in the States. With the quality moldings of my kit I assume it was quite a recent production, the fit and details are really very well done.

famvburg ,

I have no idea when this kit comes out. Must be a long time ago.

Well I finished this big guy yesterday. It's the 2nd ww2 bomber I build after the Airfix Lancaster. The fits are not too bad and I did have to use putty at the seams. I would recommend it since it's a cheap and decent kit. Hope you like the pics ( I forgot to peel off couple tapes for top windows before taking the pics Smile ) The last pic is showing it with the Lancaster and diecast B25J Michell.
