Hello,
My Monogram model. ferocious Franckie from the 361st FG, England, summer 1944.
Rescribed, flaps cutted and replaced and minor changes in the cockpit. Hard fitting but pretty nice oldies to me...
Thanks for looking !

Could you please share with us how you did the weathering? That brownish shading is about the best I've ever seen!

What paints were used and how did you weather it? Excellent work! Did you use Alclad or another metal paint? thanks
