curious about the progress on this one. Not the most common camouflage for this aircraft, but it's something else then olive drab...

Not sure what the wingspan of a MK IA was. That may be something worth checking.

Here is what one on-line source says about the Mk I & IA. This may not be definitive and where you particular number fell would be a check point.

B-26A—Incorporated changes made on the production line to the B-26, including upgrading the two .30 caliber machine guns in the nose and tail to .50 caliber. A total of 52 B-26As were delivered to the Royal Air Force, which were used as the Marauder Mk I.[2] Approximate cost then: $102,659.33/aircraft (139-built)
B-26B—Model with further improvements on the B-26A, including revised tail gunner's glazing. Nineteen were delivered to the Royal Air Forces as the Marauder Mk.IA. Production blocks of the 1,883 aircraft built:[37]AT-23A or TB-26B—208 B-26Bs converted into target tugs and gunnery trainers designated JM-1 by the Navy.B-26B—Single tail gun replaced with twin gun; belly-mounted "tunnel gun" added. (81-built)[37]B-26B-1—Improved B-26B. (225-built)[37]B-26B-2—Pratt & Whitney R-2800-41 radials. (96-built)[37]B-26B-3—Larger carburetor intakes; upgrade to R-2800-43 radials. (28-built)[37]B-26B-4—Improved B-26B-3. (211-built)[37]B-26B-10 through B-26B-55—Beginning with block 10, the wingspan was increased from 65 feet (20 m) to 71 feet (22 m), to improve handling problems during landing ...

Thanks Phil, from what I have read it appears that the wingspan increased by 6 feet from A to B and then another 6 feet from B to C. I will continue to research this.

Dave, the B &C Series distingushed Baltimore from Omaha products so the B-10 and earlier C blocks are roughly equvalent. (like the B-25C/D as CA & KSCITY)

Great work Dave!
All I can do with photoetch is ruin it and the model it's in, lose my temper and curb stomp the model like a angry gangsta...just ask my 1/48 Greatwall P-61

Good Morning, Dave The B-26 came together excellently, love the diorama. What a long journey for you, and it must have been rewarding to finally be completed. I love the contradictions of the desert & the torpedo but they had to come together in some theatres of the War. Catch Ya, Logan
