Just finished up Eduard's rebox of Hasegawa's 1/72 B-25. Their boxing Gunn's Bunny has a lot of great markings.

Only problem I ran into was the mouth, I had to make my own mask, some trial and error until it was acceptable. The decals for the mouth was not going to handle the curve of the nose great at all.

I give you Betty's Dream

I have often wondered how those 5th AF guys felt, after all the time they spent flying their field modified Air Apache C/D Mitchells into a beehive of enemy flak, stringing 23-pound para-frags on the guns and airplanes below at tree-top height. What it was like when the gun-nose B-25J with factory built .50's came into service.
Another very nice airplane model, young mister! :vgood:

I listen to a lot of Audible books and there is a great book Air Apaches that talks about the whole ordeal.
