WhatIf Ventura Revell 1:48th

This project started out to be a Ventura in French marine sevice. Like all good ideas,it wasnt to be. My decal box couldnt provide the correct size markings and the grey was way off.

So a rather tatty and battered Argentinian was the result.     A pure "whatif"

The mouth and eye were from a Fujimi Hellcat ( a very poor kit that acts as my paint mule. Im rather happy with the way they fit the scheme. The Armada and anchors were printed for me by a fellow  what if modeller and friend Kit Speckman.  (Many thanks Kit and a big weldone that man.)

The talents of my friends astound and amaze me..

..........and not just modelling. Some of my Japanese Facebook friends share some very fine aviation photography.
