TBD-1 Devastator month
My last project for TBD Devastator month is repainting my old (2017) George Gay 8-T-14 TBD into the correct colors and markings for Lt Cdr James Brett’s T-1 on the Lexington at Coral Sea.
I had two sets of T1 decals, but neither had [...]
1/72"George Gay" Midway TBD-1 Devastator - v.2
Seven years ago I completed my first aircraft builds, a trio of U.S. Navy aircraft to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Midway. I modeled one of each of the three types of carrier planes that operated from the U.S. [...]
1/72 TBD-1 Devastators
I have been collecting 1/72 Devastators in my stash for the past couple of years with an aim towards upgrading my current George Gay TBD-1 at Midway, and this double build represents an effort to clear the backlog of kits and decals before [...]

The Douglas TBD-1 Devastator was the US Navy’s premier torpedo bomber when hostilities broke out on December 7th 1941. Six months later it was completely obsolete and removed from combat operations. The subject of my build is from the [...]

It's here!! Trumpeter 1/32 TBD-1
The beeg box from Squadron landed on the front porch here at Le Chateau du Chat an hour ago.
Preliminary observation: I was right that it is based on the Great Wall Hobby kit. That's good news. Other than everything is big, nothing looks [...]
Review: At last, a large scale TBD – Trumpeter 1/32 Douglas TBD-1 Devastator
"Mythical", according to Merriam-Webster, is defined as :existing only in the imagination: fictitious, imaginary. Well, for how many years now has a Trumpeter 1/32 scale TBD Devastator been dangled in front of the modeling [...]
I have seen the Trumpeter 1/32 TBD-1 Devastator - Good News
Was up at the LHS this afternoon and they had one of the new Trumpeter 1/32 TBD-1 Devastator kits.
Yes! Thirty years of "coming soon" has arrived! It's no longer vaporware. It's real.

It's like this: 20 years ago [...]
