This is my C-119G in
1/72 scale, converted from the old but good Italeri C-119C kit. This model
represents the C-119G 2305 used by FAB from 1962 to 1975 with another 12
C-119´s in transport
duties and paratroop
drops. Decals came from a special FCM sheet
for Brazilian boxcars.

The
kit fits ok, needing some putty and sanding on the joints. I
converted to the G version, making the boom fins with plasticard and
changing the engines. Paints are: white automotive, Humbrol 127 gray
and Testors silver, yellow and green. For the interior I used Humbrol
interior green. I made the mistake of painting the silver first,
and when masking, the paint came off on the tape, so, after painting the
other colors I needed to paint the silver paint again.
I hope you like it
:)
