Theme

The C-47 has a long history of service globally, and there is an existing plane under restoration at Floyd Bennett Airfield in Brooklyn, NY.

​

This is a 1/72 Airfix kit, but I found both intended schemes unexciting. I chose a fictitious scheme based on the Caunter camouflage used for British military vehicles in Africa and the Mediterranean during WWII.

​

Process

Painting and weathering was done using brush and acrylics. I added some parts from other kits and scratch built some details for the interior.
