    This will be finished with Turkish Air Force markings circa 1948-1949

    Despite if the fuselage is not quite correct in shape, this is a fun kit to build. It is still the only A/B-26 Invader we have in this scale and when finished it is still looks like an Invader. So far Tolga your bringing this too life. Cockpit is amazing. This kit is not so labor intensive like the Marauder. Still it does have it's moments. Will follow this closely, as I have this kit and the A/B-26C kit as well. One I will convert into a Counter Invader B-26K,

    Cockpit looks great. Eduard really eases the painting. I have reached an age where painting this type of detail would be difficult. I also have one of these kits lurking in the garage and I really enjoy building some of the old Monogram and Revell kits. Looking forward to your build.

    I wonder if Pro-modeler's version corrected some of this kit shorts comings? Some notable modelers have had a go at this kit and it can be made into a good representation. Togla ,that cockpit really stands out, as does the painting of the interior. Your work on the canopy looks sharp too.

    Exterior looks great! I have always avoided natural metal because of my unpredictable results, but you certainly have it mastered.
