New kit from RoG

Post by BlackSheep214 »

Atlantic 1 "Italian Eagle" Haven't seen it out yet. Looks like a P-3 Orion Jr. with 2 propellers though. Cool looking aircraft but I shudder at the decals on this one.

Scalemates has a pdf instruction guide for this kit. Includes a "cut out mask" for painting. Oh hell no! LOL!!!

Oh, it's a pre-order too.

That’s a cool looking sub hunter. Mark, that is definitely all you! I wonder if someone will do more standard markings, rather than those flashy ones. :hmm:

That would be some project. Looks like a reboxing of a 2003 kit and it has different markings.
Thanks,
John

Good looking bird Tom! I'd be a little nervous about those cals too.

I’d rather do the standard markings myself and display it next to a P-3 Orion. :lashed:

Me too. I already have the Orion; in fact I have two: One with US Navy markings and one with JMSDF markings.
