Perhaps I should sub-title this thread "The Raffle Prize the got away".
Here's a couple of RAF B25s that I painted up, MQ-A is a Mitchell from 226 Sqn, and EV-V is from 180 sqn. Both are Wings of War repaints; I added a ventral Bendix remote control turret to both; apparently the RAF kept theirs whereas U.S. units appeared to have removed most of theirs. I used the Hataka USAAF paint set, primarily the early Olive Drab and Neutral Grey. Decals are from Shed Decals.
These were going to be a Lease-Lend raffle prize, and I told Chris Hedeby I was going to paint them some time ago. In fact he PM'd me last month to see if I was still doing them, which I confirmed. So I was a bit surprised that 3 days after that conversation that he announced that raffle number 5 was to be our last raffle! Thanks Wingco, appreciated the heads-up on that one Anyways, your loss is my gain I suppose, as they have now joined my collection.
