  The 1:144 Minicraft Model of the B-26 Marauder is in my opinion a very good kit at this small scale, and some improvements makes it even better.

  Minicraft has provided three decal options for the model, I decided for the famous "Flak Bait" of the 322 Bomber Group, fall of 1944 in Belgium.

  The kit is almost "out of the box", only the cockpit area and the main weel bays getting some improvements

  I tried to reproduce the very worn condition of the original machine. Clearly could be seen in contemporary photos. But in 1:144 the limits are reached quickly .

  I added a workshop Ladder and some Jerry Cans from BRENGUN to the diorama, and we have a realistic scene from late WWII in Europe.

  Hope you enjoy it.
