Dear all,
made it a proper Mk III and got hold of original RAAF markings. this is pretty close - the RAAF had some markings eccentricities. put a glazed reflection in the fuselage windows too . . .
MC
nice one,
i have been looking for the marking for this aircraft and can't find them, i know the beauforts that replaced them carried the code JM
glad you removed the hedgehog exhaust pipe, they were not fitted.
what about the windows!!!!!!! or at least the nose side ones

MC, John's OY M has the correct tail shadow.
Guys,
this is final product, compleat with RAAF eccenticities. shadow changed, new spinner, dash removed from A-16 to become A16, underwing A16 serial removed etc et al. Its now 99% on the money - this RAAF 32 Sqn bird came straight from the assembly line and was shot down over Buna on 22 Jul 42. For my article . . . no more changes, muchas gracias to all who contributed . . oh and John your turret rocks. Special credit for you at end of article,
MC

Ha! You might think its final product, but if you have learned one thing in your time here, it'd be that there is no such thing.
I'll prove it to you. Your engine nacelles need more shape, even if you add blur to what appears to be a pretty solid line that runs from the front to underneath the nacelle, it would make a considerable improvement.
Nice to see you giving credit where due these days.
