I have got to get that kit, if ever I bring myself back into plastic modeling. It's big by my standards. I did the Academy 1/72 PV-1 many years back as one of the Aleutian Raiders. Lots of work, old Academy molds from the early '90s. Now you must learn to paint them Cirrus. :icon_lol: It gets t be a costly hobby, one reason I had to put it on the back burner for awhile. I've been waiting to see if the local Hobby Lobby would have that kit and I'd print me a 40% off coupon from the net and get it.

i am not a Fan of painting stuff the last time i painted it messed up my Model paint was bad :kilroy: That #&*@& was not happy ...... so i just leave them unpainted less headace
 
Have been looking at that Ventura myself; it is a good looking model but also rather big and I really have no place to put it.

Building scale models is a hobby I pick up occasionally; I used to built aircraft, cars and trucks but nowadays mostly military vehicles.

Cirrus: painting requires a lot of practice (I could use some more too!) but in the end the model will look a lot better and you can spend a lot more time enjoying the build. Start with basic stuff, than add more detail as you gain experience.
 
I've got several aircraft model kits that I haven't put together due to a lack of where to put them. Most are 1/144 kits though and I need to wear reading glasses to paint them.

Nice job Cirus.

I've been working from time-to-time on a Douglas TBM Devastator. I'm tempted to paint it up as a pre-war plane, but I'll probably end up with either a Coral Sea or Midway scheme. Now that I'm retired, I'll probably get around to finishing it up once the hunting seasons are over.
