Here are some pictures of my recently finished Lockheed P2 V-7 Neptune in 1/72 scale (Revell). This was not an easy kit to built (at least not for me), a lot of sanding and puttying had to be done to fill all the gaps (I have a strong feeling that the two fuselage halves depict two different planes;), but all in all it worked out well enough for me.
I also decided to scratchbuilt the flaps (this was no option in the kit). The flaps are painted red, together with the blue and white paint scheme this made a great combination. I have tinted the canopy's and windows with Tamiya clear blue. I have used the kit decals which are excellent, you can choose between U.S. and Dutch decals, me being Dutch I didn't have to think hard about that choice.
All in all I'm pretty
satisfied with this model. Hope you all enjoy my Neptune.
