Dug this out of my stash. Didn't realize it came with a Kettering too. Nice! It also has an option for an open gun bay but I doubt I'll do that.

Calling this one done though I do want to do a base for it. My brother and his wife are visiting with us this weekend though so that might have to wait until later.

Couple of issues, I forgot to add nose weight so I had to drill a hole in the underside of the fuselage and stuff tiny little bits of lead in there. Fill it with pva glue and then plug and repaint the part where the hole was. Worked but if you breathe wrong it will sit on its tail again. I'll tack it down to the base when that is done.

The other issue was masking the canopy. Hard to get the tape to sit down on the curves in this scale. Lots of touch ups needed with the brush.

Anyway, fun project regardless. I'll try to take some better pictures when the base is done. Thanks for looking in.

Bonus shot, I have ventured into this scale once before.

And old man winter paid us another visit yesterday. I rode my bike into work on Tuesday because it was so nice out and most of the snow was gone. ❄️❄️❄️
