Here is a 1980 kit of the monograms B25, The original kit was J model but[ATTACH]23188.vB[/ATTACH] I modified it to the early C model, first I removed the tail gunners fairing, re position the top turret filled in the existing opening to the fo[ATTACH]23187.vB[/ATTACH]rward section where the top turret was located at. Nest I filled in the waist gunners window openings and modified the engine cowlings In over all[ATTACH]23186.vB[/ATTACH] it took 7 months to complete this old bomber. I choose to have her painted in the North Africa campagne. Desert pink with Azure Blue undersides.,[ATTACH]23185.vB[/ATTACH]

Cool, the canopy framing is done particularly well!

7 months hey? You are patient, I loose interest in a model after a few weeks and then I just "have to get it done" or store it away for a while till the stash runs out and I have nothing else to build LOL!

Very interesting colour scheme Franklyn and another great model from the past. You have quite a collection of beautifully made kits that should be photographed with a really good camera and saved for posterity or possibly put in a museum for future generations to enjoy.
