Almost done after all the years of seeing it in my stash. I opened up the bomb bay and added a bomb, even though the instructions had it closed. Just too much detail to ignore. The landing gear is down and locked.Lots of parts there too. Canopy masked removed with no real issues. I posed a jeep and some figures along with a P-47, to show the size of this bird. Gary S.
