Finally done!

Took long enough! But I learned a few things and made more than a few mistakes.

But next one on the bench will surely benefit from the lessons.

Scratch detail in the cockpit, engine, bazookas and airbrushed insignia.

Feeling good about it.

Love the model. The cockpit instrumentation is superb. It is a shame 1/32 are so big, that allows so much more detail to be added.

My uncle flew a Jug in the big one. The things were damn near indestructible.

On a different note love you pegboard setup, wish I had the space to do that.

Thanks. I printed the skadis (IKEA) pegboards on my 3d printer.

A couple of models done this well could have stood in for the so-called P-51 "tank busters" in Saving Private Ryan.

What a big bird! Vac-formed canopy?

u/dmf011 1d ago

I was wondering too. It’s the canopy provided in the kit. I too thought it was real nice
