Hasegawa's 1/72 scale
Martin B-26 Marauder

by Tetsuro Matsuo

Hasegawa's 1/72 scale B-26B Marauder is available online from Squadron.com

Here is Hasegawa’s 1/72 scale B-26 Marauder. I spend about 5 months building this kit.

The main modifications are as follows.

• I refined the port-side engines using thin rod, wire and solder lines

• I added various scratch built parts to the inside of the fuselage & turrets

• On the outside surface, I thinned the panel lines, reproduced the overlapping between the panels by piling up the instant adhesive, and added rivets by using the Hasegawa etching saw

• All of the clear parts was replaced with home made parts.

• Nose-art and all markings other than the stencils on the propeller blades are painted.

• The flaps were dropped.

I did not use any after market parts at all.
