Isn't this the same model and photos that you've posted previously?
Convair PB4Y-2 Privateer. | Album by 1_72

Gorby, yes it is. Just wanted to attach photoalbum to the project and while doing this, it appeared on my wall as a new photoalbum. I may not have figured out how to do it correctly yet, sorry.

If you edit the photo album and go down to 'Linked project' you can select it from there.

Btw, I am sure I've seen a variant for the US navy, but with the tail of the typical B-24. Looking like a mix between the Liberator and the Privateer.

1_72
Treehugger, of course you're right. It was PB4Y-1 Liberator with Erco Ball turret at front, (same like Privateer) and I guess bit lenghtened fuselage, compared to B 24 Liberator.

Finally done! 🙂
Was an awesome kit, still I made a lot of little mistakes and mishaps, but for my first kit since I started again a few months ago, I am really happy.

Looks great. Was the Vickers an inter-war tank? Ie pre 1939?

Vítězslav Horák
Yes. Years of service of Vickers Medium Tank MK II were 1925 - 1939

Thanks for reply. You can really see where they got the inspiration for The Lee and the Grant and even the Stuart from this. By the way I love the small rear firing cannon/machine guns on the rear sides.

Actually they look like Vickers MGs. Which would make sense it being a Vickers tank ! 🙂
I am currently trying to get kits of the tanks my grandfather drove in North Africa from 1941 onwards. He was in 10th royal hussars which was part of 2nd arm brig, 1st arm div. He drove Crusaders and Shermans for sure (in North Africa and then Italy so he may even have worked with Cromwell?) but if I can't find any kits with the right markings I'm hoping I'll be able to find specialist decal makers or even stencil some.
I'm having to work my way up though because you have more skill in your fingernails than I do in my whole body 🙂
But eventually I hope to do his memory justice when I build a tribute to him with his cap badges and medals attached.
