Favorite Corgi 72nd scale B-24

Post by Sabrefan » Fri Aug 27, 2010 12:42 pm

Hi Guys,

I am looking to get a Corgi 72nd scale B-24 model. Which paint scheme do you guys like best on this model? I am kind of partial to the British paint schemes. Just trying for figure out which one to get.

Wow, I really like the RAF Coastal Command paint scheme AA34005. Anyone know where I can find one of these? I usually get my models from Aikens, but they are sold out of this one.

I personally like the "Dragon and His Tail" livery on the Corgi B-24, however, the version that I own is actually the "Sleepy Time Gal" B-24J. I rather like the OD green scheme on this plane.

I'm kinda partial to the "Pistol Packin" Mama" scheme, there's something about the yellow & black tail markings, combined with the red engine nacelles that makes for a nice contrast with the overall OD green scheme, and the nose art is very nice too. 8)
