A Midway PBY-5A of VP-44 on patrol 3 June 1942; Ensign Jack Reid and his crew out looking for trouble. Or the Japanese carriers, although for a PBY that's very much the same thing.
And a shot of the aircrew afterward:
Shapeways WSF model by jbmacek, Vallejo and Tamiya paint (deicing boots done with a permanent marker), decals homemade ('44-P-4') and Mehusla, prop discs from Aerodrome Accessories. A big, impressive model that was quite fun to paint.
