  Canada Day 2006 

 

Up for Canada day. A Canadian B-25 Mitchell. The model is a Accurate Miniatures B-25B. Not exactly the right model for my project. However the model was a gift and really, an amazing kit. Amazing instructions. Very nice plastic and lots of options.

I ordered decals from CanMil. They are a computer mail only business out of London Ontario. This sheet while an ALPS sheet turned out very nice. I backdated the numbers given to do a model a little closer to the airframe I had. The windows are good for a Mk1 or 2, not the 3 I had decals for. Still a few errors, but you don't accept a gift and then never build the thing.

I still think it turned out pretty nice and it looks good on the shelf. Far from a show winner, but I don't do shows so who cares? As often the last shot shows the model in place on the shelf. Collecting dust from now till?????
