I posted this project here three-and-a-half years ago, and sometime back Martin indicated it would be OK to add previous project photos when the Midway Group Build went live.

The kit is 's offering, with additional scratch detail.

  1. Nicely done. Rob...love that base, too.

  2. Wow, that's an excellent build. I think that Trumpeter kit is quite well done and is one of their best kits. My compliments to you on a fine looking model as well as good photography too.

  3. Ditto on the Wow! Beautiful.

  4. New build or not, I'm glad to see it! Excellent build.

  5. Thanks for reposting this one Rob ! I like everything about this one. The plane, the base, the photography, I mean everything. Absolutely perfect. Thanks again my friend. It fits in with the Midway GB reveal very well...

    • Thanks, Louis, and thanks for all your work setting up the Group Build.

      • Naturally, meant to credit Chuck as principal in the matter; I read your response elsewhere as 'just a contributor', but your enthusiasm is also part of its success.

        • It was a team effort, and I am very pleased with the turnout. The headlines section has been very busy with Midway postings over the last few days. I tend to get enthusiastic with history and aircraft... 🙂 🙂 🙂

          we had a very good team which really helped.

  6. Repost or not, it looks great, Rob!
