SBD, LG came in two flavors. This variant is from the mainly land based Marine, yellow, version. Though it will have a tail hook, and could land at sea on a carrier, it had a larger pneumatic tail wheel and distinct fairing thingy. Carrier based planes had a different fairing and a small solid rubber wheel.

This side built second I bent the cardboard around a large dowel. No "elliptical delusional" wrinkles, just a smooth looking curve.

This side was constructed first. I formed the thingy with finger power. What appeared tp be winkles were "elliptical delusions" cause by stress on the cardboard. Though visible the surface bend is smooth ready for the Aluminum tape.

LD day, here is what I have come up with. Close to the real photo and better than the kit supplied plastic.

Delivery from T Hobbies arrived. This Dubro rubber would fit nicely if the LG was to retract, but I think they will look great with the LG down.
