And it is done...

Sorry for the picture quality, still getting used to the new camera...

And a group photo...

Good job! The TBD looks great and right at home with the other two. The photos look just fine from here.

I just dug one of these out of storage a few weeks ago and am going to restore it. I'm most likely going to go retro on it and do a prewar scheme.

You've done a great job on that old fossil!
I've got one of those with the Squadron Shop vac canopy, it's in the same box as an AM TBF-1 in 48th. I've been trying for years to figure out how to diminish the HUBBLEY TOY diecast pot metal looking wing fold hinges.

Very nice job! :drinkers:

Your next build should be matching 1:48 Scale FA-18 Hornet, EA-6B Prowler and an S-3B Viking in their 100th Anniversary markings!
:shock:

Thanks for the compliments guys. The build was box-stock with after market decals.

That Prowler looks fantastic.

Second A.F. I look forward to seeing your "restoration."

great job on the devastator!! is that the monogram kit from the 70's w/ the crewman cranking up the tbd in the yellow markings in diorama form??

Yes Tom, it is the same kit. It has been reissued several times, but this was an older boxing I picked up at a swapmeet for just a few $. I spent more on paint and decals than the kit. :lol:
