Another 1/144 scale bomber now. This Marauder came in the same batch as the Liberator I mentioned recently. Again, I wanted to finish it as something other than a 'standard' US or RAF machine. At around the time I was researching the B-24 markings I saw a mention of B-26s having been used by the RAAF. I then came across a picture of an RAAF Mitchell in a rather striking plain green over black finish, and decided to use this scheme on the Marauder.

| This model suffered more than most under the camera flash (see third photo), so I tried it with no flash. |
 |
| The markings were made up from what I could find - the roundels are RAF ones without the red centre added. |
 |
| Switching the flash off changes the shade of green totally! |
nice looking Marauder!

ReplyDeleteIt's a bit different, isn't it?
one question...which green is true?

ReplyDeleteThe third photo is closest to how it looks under natural light.
