PT-109

Post by doc-hm3 »

This is my first boat/ship build since the late 60's. So I picked out an odl kit from that era. ImageImageImageImageImageImage Let me know what you think.
Thanks doc-hm3

Normally with this JFK model it comes with the crew and larger PT 109 decals on the bow, a very nice build, much better than mine, the weathering is a nice little touch, not to much and not too little, if this is your first in all those years, then I dare say people will be looking forward to your other builds. :thumbs_up_1:

Doc, nice job on your PT-109. Everytime I see one of these kits built it reminds me of when I saw the Movie PT-109 on the big screen a lot of years ago. Thanks for posting her pictures and I hope to see more of your boat and ship builds in the future.

Thanks for the comments guys. I have always wanted to build this kit, but thought that it was to crude. I am pleased with the way that it turned out. I ommited the bow decals because they were not on the real boat. Also added an armored plate in place of the windscreen as per what I have read.
thanks, doc
