HI GUYS well ive finshed the 1st of 16 B25 an this was a better build than them small planes but still very fragile an made a few mistakes on it as i treid to do a little wheathering on it with some lighter green on the darker green but oh what a miustake that was as the paint crazed but ill live with it as from a a small distsane its hardly noticseably but the decals are very good but got the shakes so ive given up for today anyway some pics on the carrier of the 1st exspeirmental B25 BUT I MUST DO BETTERIMG_1646.webp
