  1. A great job, nicely done on a real beast. SB2C also known as Son of a Bi**h 2Class.

  2. Aha! The only other modeler besides me I have seen who is brave enough/crazy enough/skilled enough to do the Eduard p-e divebrakes! (Emphasis on "crazy enough"). Well done Rafi!

    I think this is the best kit ProModeler/Monogram ever did.

  3. Awesome result, Rafi!
    Congratulations!

  4. Another beautiful build, Rafi @blackmopane
    Looks great with all options in open position.
    Looking forward to the folded wing version.

  5. Nice looking "Beast", Rafi! Think this is the first one i've seen with the Alpha Numeric Carrier Air Group codes. Most people like to do G-Symbols...

  6. Excellent work!

  7. Great work, Rafi. I loved that one too!

  8. Beautiful. I have a couple in the stash. Maybe someday I'll build them. There's now 3 flyable in the world.

  9. Nice work on the dive brakes, looks great. I agree, the Pro-Modeler Beast rocks! I did one many years ago.

  10. That is a fantastic build, and those dive brakes are phenomenal!

  11. Excellent result...well done!

  12. Rafi @blackmopane, you are a most prolific builder, and I like this one. That is a really beastly looking plane, and I love it displayed with the dive brakes open. You have a really impressive looking build there!

  13. I agree. I loved building this kit - one of their finest. You sure knocked this one out of the park, Rafi @blackmopane.

  14. I love this ugly seabeast, and you did a fabulous job on her!

  15. Beautifully built, and beautifully photographed! What paints did you use for the exterior, and the landing gear and wells?
