Finnish Brewster B-239 Winter Camouflage

This is the Revell Kit for Finnish Brewster Buffalo in 1:72.





Parts. 
A rather basic kit.



Finnish B-239 was "export model" of the Buffalo.
A bit lighter version, the plane was exported without Navy equipment, 
e.g. life raft and landing hooks.





Brewster worked well in the colder climate and some of the  shortcomings of
the engine were solved by the Finnish mechanics




Although Buffalo was almost disastrous for the Americans and the British,
B-239 produced excellent results in the hands of the Finnish pilots.














 This camouflage pattern was inspired by war time photos from the February 1943.
