OBB build of the Revell Texan, I believe this is a rebox of the old Heller kit and has raised panel lines. I did not bother to sand the raised panel lines as it was too much work, the only thing I added was the pitot tube which was made from a hypodermic needle. Decals are from Blue Daimond Decals based in the UK which specialises in Philippine Military subjects. Painted with Aluminum with a base of Jet Black using SMS Paints which are manufactured in Australia. Slight weathering with panel liners, oil paint and highly diluted Tamiya smoke which was sprayed on some panels.
