Brewster Buffalo/Buccaneer/Bermuda Ideas

I made an enlarged-engined "Bison" a long time ago:



But was never very satisfied with it. It looked imbalanced, with too much forward. I "Phoenixed" it recently, adding a P-47 rear fuselage and tail, wingtips, enlarged tailplanes, and moved the cockpit slightly forward. I also tried out an "innovative" camo scheme, though keeping with the NEIAF markings:





The result is a more "balanced" plane, with dimensional and power upgrades.
........................

But, my thoughts turn to a simple "paint/markings" Buffalo whif---maybe the Philippines gets some Finnish-style Buffaloes (B-239) to augment their P-26 "Peashooters" and the red-white, and blue diamonds appear on their wings!

funny cam .... come on, admit it ! - you were playing with your model in the bath while blowing soap bubbles ;D

I have a Tamiya Buffalo that I want to make into a Soviet one - just need to find a 48th P-40B nose at a good price.

The "combat evolved" Brewster Buffalo :)

Looks great with the fuselage stretch.

Kit bash the Buffalo with the Il-2 Sturmovik ?

I did a retouch of the Brewster SB2A as a single-seat Buccaneer fighter.
