F-4-1-LO Lightning (P-38) - 1st PRU, RAAF, A55-3 |
Aviation
Archive - WWII
- Photo Reconnaissance. Nice model, and
the P-38 mold can't be beat. Nicely modified nose, with camera fairing
and I think a sighting mast, though it could be an aerial. Corgi should
be given credit for covering the recon planes of WWII; this model
wasn't a particularly good seller, but anyone in love with the twin-boomer
should have this colorful version in the collection.
Photographers:
Included in this update are some test shots using different saturation
and white balance settings. I chose the moderate saturation and reddish
white balance; a higher saturation would be too vivid for a WWII warplane,
and normal white balance would appear too washed out and dull. |
