Hi friends,

Very nicely done and weathered!  Do'nt forget the ID lights on the bottom between the exhaust.

Fantastic job on this classic kit from Revell.  I recall fondly building this model as a youngster.  It was the "Baa Baa Blacksheep" kit!

Thanks guys.

 

The kit is old but Revell package it with new decals which is very nice to work with.

I wish Revell release the TBM Avenger in this scale. I would love to build it for my next US Navy plane but the Trumpeter kit out there is quite expensive.
