B-25 Mitchell "Meet Miss Runyon" by Javlin-HK-1/32
Javlin replied to Javlin's topic in Non-ship/categorised builds
It and 1/24 are really the main ones I play in anymore if I happen to have an old 1/48 with the goodies I will use it otherwise OOB for me.This B-25 has been on the back burner for to long but it's going to force me into the other side of the shop to finish 1/2 cabinets planned. Kevin -

I keep plodding along on this one the book helped with the Bendix turret some PE parts was for the footrest once I knew that pretty much knew the position.I got the front hatch entry installed dirty a bit I think Eduard wanted me to saw off the original then install there's leaving the open hole hence the reason for the wash.The tailgunner station is just about complete doing ammo boxes now much like the nose boxes(5X).I am getting close to doing the Copit before long still alittle more work in the turret area.Thanks for looking in this build has been hoot!

It's suppose to be the most accurate I think between the B-17 and B-24 cannot say as to the others. Kevin -

Just let it be known these things do not get built without effort about 10hrs here over the course of the week and not all is being displayed as of yet building lots of sub-assemblies.I also have a new book coming to help out on some of the stations/colors comes Friday. Kevin -
Is there a said point to start?I sometimes see builds with a bottom plank and something in the middle(gunwale?).Russ told me to plank it since it will get painted in the end.I will keep watching. Kevin

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
