Four Mark I model, Brewster Buffaloes just off the workbench and winging their way through the US Postal System. link They're molded in gray and clear plastic. These were a fairly straight forward build. I added wire pins to help support the horizontal stabilizers as they were simple butt joints and not likely to hold up under game conditions. I also filled in the landing gear wells with epoxy putty as the kits were molded to have the gear in the down position. They're F2A2 kits painted as F2A3s at Midway. Decals are from Miscellaneous Miniatures. I used Vallejo Air Color and Model Color paints on these. I'd say the kits would be appropriate for modelers of intermediate skill. They're not too challenging but a little experience would help.
