Looks great Joe, you really whipped it into shape
Great job, Joe! You did the right thing by putting it aside for a while, calming down, then getting back to it. I ran into the same wing fit issues with the Monogram TBD-1 Devastator that I’m building for the Monogram Mafia IV Group Build. You should take a look at that thread (page 12, I think). Big gaps on that one, too - at least a millimeter everywhere the wing met the fuselage.
Anyways, you made that tough kit into a gorgeous replica. Way to go!

Many many thanks all.
Gary I will have to check out your build. Time has been pretty short supply around here for a while. Hopefully I will have a chance to catch my breath soon.
Joe
Well my friends we call this one done.
Well we did a while ago just never took the time to finish it out.
Added were custom decals as well as the finishing touches for the props and such.
All in all this is to represent an aircraft of the 1st Bomb Group.
The pictures turned out like garbage though. Not sure how or why. I know that I have something on one of the inner workings that is causing some issue but these show a ton of crap.
All comments, critiques, and criticism are encouraged.
Joe
I don’t see a ton of crap. Just one beautifully built B-18 that I gotta have . Well done Mate [Y] [Y]
it’s too bad that your technique of different basing under the Alclad didn’t show up in the pics, but I bet it’s spectacular.
She really came out beautiful, well worth the effort.
The B-18 looks real nice, Joe. It does look like you are due for a sensor cleaning, though. The little specks really show up with high f-stop settings where you get the best depth of field.
Many thanks all.
The speck has been a constant for a while now. Will have to get it cleaned.
Joe
Excellent build and presentation!
Your friend, Toshi
Many thanks Toshi.
Joe
That looks fantastic. I don’t see anything in the shots that take away from it. That one turned out stunning. Well executed and done to perfection.
