Here are some finished pics, the color shift after scanning and balancing actually worked out ok...a little chalk and fade from salt spray?
The 8-T-7 designation on the side indicates that this plane flew off the Hornet, that's my research...not necessarily right. We visited the Hornet in Oakland a few years ago and that made this build kind of special.
My flight deck is getting crowded so the folded wings will save a little space and since the TBD was the first plane with hydraulically folding wings this was an appropriate depiction, again, my research and not necessarily right.
