Finished B-24D Liberator (academy/minicraft)

Tim
The lifelike decals (part 4) were used rather than the kit ones Which was a good move. Its a good kit.

Nice, you don't seem to see many of these built up. You've done a good job

Cristian Bordina
Really good job, I like it very much 🙂

Christian Keller
Looks really nice, i built the Hasegawa Kit and it was a challenge to not become a tailsitter 😉

John Thomas
Nice work

Tim
I put large amounts of lead in nose and frobt of engine nacelles....and it still tail sat. A clear bit of sprue glued to the tail bump skid keeps it from tail sitting.

Great work! 🙂

My father was the pilot of the Goon in the CBI. Great job on the model. I do have dvds of his 8 mm films taken during combat, in China and India.

Robbie
@ChevSam - you should post any stories your father had flying "The Goon" that he might of passed on to you. You google 'B-24 The Goon' and you get a ton of info back. The top gunner has some fame down here in Arizona.

Clifford Keesler
Very nice B-24.

Do you have a problem on engine cowling?

Tim
The detail on the cowlings was very subtle so I went over it with a panel line scribe. I also added deluxe materials liquid gravity into each cowling to help stop tail sitting (it did not work).

Tim
Thanks @ChevSam . The history of the aircraft and crew was very interesting and influenced which tail markings to use. Great nose art too.

Paul Moore
Nice looking B-24 from an old kit! Good idea with the clear sprue piece for tail. So are you saying it's pretty much a tail sitter regardless what you do? (For my planning).

Tim
Thanks Paul. Well I failed to avoid tail sitting but you maybhave more luck. I can remember how much I put in the fuselage. I know I filled the front of the engines with delus materials liquid gravity.
