This is my 1/72 B-25J Mitchell
from Revell. This model is the winner of the 1/72 scale aircraft in
the 20th İstanbul Aviation museum plastic model contest. Decals are from
Eagle Strike and are good quality. Other than that, the model is
out of the box. I had some problems because I didn't put enough
weight at the nose, during the beginning of the build. Fortunately
putting more weight inside the engines from the wheel bays saved the
situation and balanced the model.
For the paint I used a lot
of different colors, by mixing different types of olive drabs, yellows, and
browns. I believe that more the color tones, gives more realistic
effects. Paints are Tamiya Acrylic.
I did some weathering with oils, and pastels.
Enjoy the pictures
