Here are two examples of a spotted B24 - they are different ships, but look very similar. Mine will be along these lines. Note conveniently the tail, dorsal, and nose turrets are retained, less guns, so less conversion.

I also have a very cute B-17F in polka-dots .... hmmmm

The Tiger looks great in the low-vis scheme, and the Panther is simply superb!
Best wishes

Running behind, as usual.

Just filling in lower turret, gear, bomb bay, etc ...

So far just a few minutes work each time I get to it - which is the problem.

Need to dig out a stand next.

My apologies, I was away attending a family emergency so needed to go AWOL unexpectedly.

I'll be removing the F-5Es from active as of now, and shall post pictures presently.

Nice work on the Liberator so far, John.

Running behind you might be, but I'm not running at all yet! One problem is that I seem to have mislaid the kit...I thought I'd put it back in the stash while I attacked my Avro kit-bash, but when I looked today it wasn't there. It must still be in the modelling den somewhere 🤔

Looks like your Liberator is going well even if slower than you'd like John 👍
Best wishes
