A reprint from my editorial archives is this camouflage feature by Mr Rick Kent, originally posted at the pages of IPMS Stockholm – Ed. Britain's lack of long-range heavy fighters at the outbreak of the war was undoubtedly a source of [...]

Trumpeter 1/32 SBD-2

by Tom Cleaver on February 19, 2013 · in Aviation · 2 ≡

Trumpeter basically scaled up the Accurate Miniatures Dauntlesses (good idea) with some additional detail (but not much other than surface detail and engine and accessory section). The Dauntless has raised rivets on the surface, but the [...]
