Shipwreck Lananda thanks guys, but if you are impressed by my work, what can you say of this? http://www.drivefly.it/gallery/martin-b-26-marauder.ph That is some kind of beautiful work. Actually I think that Andrea is a bit crazy. Just take a look at some of his other work!

I have to say WOW too!!! Beautiful model of my favorite twin-engine bomber.
Hope you don't mind but if I ever get around to building my kit I'd like to use some of your interior shots for reference. I probably won't super-detail the interior like you did but I'd like some idea on how to paint stuff.
Absolutely supreme workmanship. Artwork at it's best! Never seen anything like it before!

That is some really stunning work. With all that extra detail, i see see why it took 2 years. Time well spent. Very nice dio as well. Great build all round, look forward to seeing some more of your builds.

The shots at sunset looks fantastic!
@Brindos: i started on janauary 2015 and the model was completed about on october 2016. The truck and the base took the rest of time.

Absolutely amazing detail. Your completed model and diorama is spectacular. I built this kit in 1981 and only added a few details in the aft "waist" area consiting of the ammo feed and boxes and a heater/defroster hose in the nose compartment. I was mainly wanting to have a diorama with the engines running up and landing lights on. I did succeed in getting a few "realistic" pics looking like a dawn run up prior to a mission.
Clear Left!

That is absolutely magnificent!!
How long did you work on this?

Beautiful work indeed! And an excellent setting for it as well.
Even if some Chinese model company does come out with a Marauder, it will likely cost two to three times as much and have multiple shape & accuracy issues. That is usually the case.

All that hard work that you put into this model really paid off. You created a beautiful B-26 and the diorama sets it off nicely.
thanks again,
the final shots of the completed model:
the GMC tanker is the beautiful Tamiya kit
and at last the diorama composed:
This is the end...i bet that in a couple o weeks some chinese firm will announce a new kit of the Flying Prostitute....
bye
Lananda,
The level of fineness is quite impressive and very realistic.
And you are an excellent photographer as well !

Lananda the rapidity is due to the fact that the model was completed 4 months ago and the shots were taken during the building.

ah ha!
WOW is right.
This humbles my B-26 by far and it got a 3rd place at the Orlando IPMS show
I'm finally retired. Now time I got, money I don't.
Thanks to all,
@goldhammer: WOW is WOW all around the world! in italian it can be translated in a dozen of words, the most of them is better not be reported
Don't know hw "WOW" translates to Italian, but I'm passed impressed.
Excellent work sir! Your detailing is just superb. I'll be following your build closely.
With all that beautiful interior work you could have made a cut-away version of this it looks so good!
In the pattern: Scale Shipyard's 1/48 Balao Class Sub! leaning out the list...NOT! Ha, added to it again - Viper MkVii, 1/32 THUD & F-15J plus a weekend madness build!
Lananda if i'm not wrong some areas of Flak Bait interiors still wear a protective transparent blue film over the bare alluminium. Hope to see it soon cleaned up!

Yes, I saw that on wing interior areas in photos.
You are making rapid progress on this build! Excellent!
Thanks,
the building was not easy in some points...
....but who sands wins!
Next step coming soon.
Bye!
WOW! Now that is some super detailing! That looks like a ton of fun!!
That is superb super-detailing. Looks quite authentic.
Flak Bait is getting put back together by the NASM staff as we speak, so it is a good time to get photos of all the nooks and crannies. It is just getting cleaned up, not "restored" as in the case of the MAPS B-26-0 which they slathered with interior green when they were delivered in NMF.
WIP: Monogram 1/72 B-26 (Snaptite) as 73rd BS B-26, 40-1408, torpedo bomber attempt on Ryujo
Monogram 1/72 B-26 (Snaptite) as 22nd BG B-26, 7-Mile Drome, New Guinea
Minicraft 1/72 B-24D as LB-30, AL-613, "Tough Boy", 28th Composite Group
Very convincing super detailing! I'm more than impressed.

Lananda Thank you, it seems that all the surplus stocks of interior green have been used restoring old museum aircrafts never trust the kit instructions or restored examples are two rules of the game Bye

Exactly. I used every image of Flak Bait that I could find online as reference. She was stored in 1945 condition, not restored. A perfect time capsule for us 75 years later.
Your interior looks fantastic!
