1/32 Trumpeter Dauntless

by Ron

--------------------

 

This is my first completed Trumpeter kit.  I have to say it's one of the best 1/32 scale kits I have ever built.  The fit and detail is super.  I added an Eduard cockpit detail set for the instrument panels, a set of their seat belts and a little wiring to the engine.  The decals in this kit are terrible, this is the only fault I could find with the kit.  I opted for an aftermarket set of decals from Yellow Wings Decals.  These decals are super! with a little Mirco Sol they set right down into every molded detail.  Paint used was Model Master with a oil wash of Paynes Grey for weathering.
