Dale1416, Image # 30260 | 14 Dec 13 19:52 | Control surfaces inked in and decals applied. Did not use kit supplied decals, since I went with a different paint scheme. Decals used are from two other Dumas 200 series kits. |
Dale1416, Image # 30259 | 14 Dec 13 19:51 | Instrument panel, exhaust pipes, and simulated upper dive brake flaps added to this build. |

Dale1416, Image # 30256 | 14 Dec 13 19:49 | Guillow’s wheels used, not narrow kit wheels. Bombs were scratch built |
Dale1416, Image # 30255 | 14 Dec 13 19:49 | 3 blade propeller helped embellish this model. |
Dale1416, Image # 30254 | 14 Dec 13 19:48 | Dumas 200 series kits are not very detailed, but I am satisfied with what I could do with it. I realize there are many more Dauntless details that could be added such as found on the Guillow’s 1000 series model. |
Dale1416, Image # 30253 | 14 Dec 13 19:47 | Back in the late 1940’s, I built a Dauntless with a 20” wingspan from a Comet kit, but did it in the WW 11 blue/gray colors., as Dumas kit #228 suggests. I just like this color scheme better! |
Dale1416, Image # 30223 | 04 Dec 13 13:46 | Next build is the Dauntless, another model I had done back in the mid 1940's (original Comet plans shown) This build will be from the laser cut Dumas Kit #228 with an 18" wingspan. Plan to make it into the pre WWII paint scheme as was done by Xanadu and John M. Oshurst on their models. |
Dale1416, Image # 30222 | 04 Dec 13 13:46 | Framwork laid on plans with planked cowling |
