Hello,
This
is Hasegawa's 1/48 Dauntless built with a few additions. This is a lovely little
kit, however, if you want it to look realistic, it takes a little work. Firstly,
if you want to build this aircraft OOB then get the Accurate Minatures kit-its
much better. It's what I would have done had I known!
This
model goes together well, however it is cut short on detail. To remedy this, I
cut away and drilled out the airbrakes, then made cuts to the canopy so to pose
it in the open position. I also added PE seat harness's and stretched sprue. The
aircraft is finished in the markings of VS-2 Sqn, US Navy.
