Had Dauntless SBD-3 triple camo? Sea blue, intermediate blue and white? I have Dauntless in 1/48 scale ACC, and I want to give him this interesting camo. Thanks a lot and sorry for my bad English.

Hi Jindrich, I could well be wrong, but when I did my Acc. Min. SBD-3 a year or so back, I only ever saw pics of it in the early war blue-gray over gray scheme, rather than the mid-war triple camo one you refer to, and so I finished mine in the early scheme. From the pics I saw when I was doing my research, the triple camo didn't seem to be used until the -4 version of the SBD, but as I said, I'm happy for the sake of what you want to build for someone to prove me wrong! Good luck, Brad

Hi, thanks a lot for contact me back. I bought a publication from Kagero, and I saw there picture of SBD-3 in "triplecamo". I dont know it for 100%, but there is stencil SBD-3. So I dont know.. If you want I can scan it and send it to you. One more thanks to you
