Here are a few images of my completed AZ Models 1/48 Vultee Vengeance. It is pretty much straight from the box with only a bit of added detail to the engine, a rebuilt tail wheel (kit one would not fit) and some EZ Line for antenna cables.

Excellent workmanship on your build. Did you use the Life Color paints on this ?.

Great job Harvs, it's nice to see an uncommon subject built up like this. The thread over on AussieModeller is full of great tips as well.

Thanks for sharing.

Cheers, D

This is one of those "unbuildable" kits, right? Wrong! Yours looks fantastic, David- cheers!
