Curtiss SB2C Helldiver

The Curtiss SB2C Helldiver

So, third post of the American build chain — here we have the SB2C! Let’s get straight to the point.

I made the SB2C with two liveries and three variants:
flying (with the gunner part of the canopy opened in firing position), landed with the gear down, and one with folded wings.

For the livery, I used the real-world reference from the Commemorative Air Force’s SB2C — apparently the only flying SB2C in the world!
For the second one, yep, you guessed it — another fictional JMSDF version for the project™.

Now, there’s actually one difference between these two Helldivers. If you haven’t spotted it already, look under the wings — the JMSDF one has these antenna things hanging down, while the commemorative version doesn’t. And yes, this is accurate! The aircraft from commemorative doesn’t have those antennas, so I kept it true to the source.

Alright, that’s about it for today. If you haven’t already, join the Discord — that’s where I drop updates, sneak peeks, random progress shots, and also just yell into the void sometimes.

Cheers,
Felix A.
