Colorful assembly ships are always striking additions to a contest table and Tim’s B-24D was a perfect example. He added cockpit detail and scratchbuilt the observers’ positions in the tail and top turret for an Academy 1/72 scale Liberator and painted it with Mission Models acrylics and AK Interactive Real Colors lacquers. The aircraft is marked as “Wham Bam”, an assembly ship from the 453rd Bomb Group.
