I'm guessing you know that kit is way off what it claims to be...

Thank you Al for the answers,ah, the kit is the Atlantis release of PT-212(ex-Revell) in 1/102 scale. Previous Message
When PT73 was transferred from the Aleutians to the SW Pacific in May 1944, she was painted in MS 31/5P. By January 1945, she may have been repainted in 31/20L. I haven't been able to find any photos of her or her RON13 sisters later than 1944, so cannot be sure.
Are you creating a kit? If so, what scale? I can help you with plans if you need them. Previous Message
I'm going to make a kit of the 78ft Higgins boat
PT-73 in 1945. Does anyone know what camo scheme PT-73 was painted in at the time of her loss in Jan,1945 in the Philipines. Thank you in advance.
