Overshadowed by the T-6 Texan/Harvard in the history books as well as on the hobby shop shelf, the Vultee BT-13/SNV Valiant is a worthy addition to any collection of trainers. Jean Luc Formery builds the 1/48 scale Planet Models kit.

Hi Jean-Luc

Beautiful job! I haven't managed to buy the "Super Metallics" yet in the UK, but I've also been very impressed by Gunze's standard "Mr Metal" paints.

All the best

OK, you've done it again. And this time with an all-resin model in yellow and silver, not the world's most forgiving finish! Beautiful as usual!

Jean-Luc, just an outstanding build. Your cockpit & instrument panels came out perfect. And your NBF looks like metal, not paint. Well done.
