First post! Lockheed Ventura

[Guest]

Hi Chaps.
I'm new back to aeromodelling and have a few builds done but this is my first post presenting a bud to a critical public! Anyway, let me know what you think. Pictures are all taken on my phone so are a bit, well, amateur.
Apologies for the filters too.

This is the Revell 1:48 lockheed Ventura. An outstanding kit that was a pleasure to build. Went together great and has fantastic detail.[ATTACH]289148[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]289149[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]289150[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]289151[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]289148[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]289149[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]289150[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]289151[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]289152[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]289153[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]289154[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]289155[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]289156[/ATTACH]

Thanks!
I'm hoping to pick up some tips and tricks to take the modelling to the next level.

This is the place for that Rupert (although I obviously won't be giving you any tips more likely to be the other way round) there are loads of incredible modelers on here all to willing to help.

Welcome to the forum Rupert!
Nice build you have there! The colour looks excellent, like the weathering all around as well.

Thanks. I was worried about the duck egg green. It's Vallejo model air and I though it was too green, but after highlighting and vanishing, it looks right (I think!).

Thats a fantastic build you have yourself there.

This is one of the kits i have in my stack and agree with you having looked at the parts that it is a great model.

Really do like you paintwork.

Excellent work Rupert. Welcome to the forum.

That looks great. There isn't a thing I would change, in fact, I might even have to buy one now I've seen this fantastic example.

That's a great build, Rupert. I love the modulation in the paintwork.
