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.20171003_213619.jpg 20171003_214336.jpg 20171008_201244.jpg 20171003_125021.jpg 20171003_213619.jpg 20171003_214336.jpg 20171008_201244.jpg 20171003_125021.jpg 20171003_213929.jpg 20171003_223413-03.jpeg 20171003_212933-01.jpeg 20171003_214029-01.jpeg 20171004_082625-01.jpeg

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.

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.

It's a great kit. The bomb doors are a bit fiddly with that concertina type arrangement but the kit is a delight.
