Over the weekend I managed to finish a 1/200 resin TBD Devastator available from Armaments in Miniature. It's a nice little three piece kit (airplane is one piece and the other two are the bomb and torpedo). The kit cleaned up nicely with a hobby knife and a fine sanding stick. There were no air bubbles.
The kit has a nice amount of detail in the way of panel lines. It also comes with a steel screw already mounted in the belly so it's readily adaptable to magnetized stands.
The decals on this mini are a mix of I-94 Enterprises (stripes on tail and aircraft number) and some leftovers from a 1/144 scale, Sweet, F4F kit (national insignia). I'm expecting some Dom's Decals to arrive in the near future and hope that some of the larger 1/300 scale decals will work on my Midway Devastators.
For grins I decided to use the bomb on this mini. The rest will have torpedoes. Kevin
