Wdedig Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 This is the Final installment of an 8th AF project. The models will be used for a "Show and Tell" for an 8th AF Veterans luncheon and their families. I wanted this shiny for the presentation. I didn't go to much on the AMS. Photo-etched seat and added rivet line in some spots. The four on the nose is actually smaller in photos. Not a bad build for an older model ,but a great deal at $5.00 USD. Uschi line for antenna you can hardly see. Cheers Thank for looking Comments Always Welcome Bill 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wdedig Posted August 21, 2018 Author Share Posted August 21, 2018 Thank you all for the compliments. The aircraft is from 434th FS, 479th FG, 8th AF. I wanted to create a Natural Metal finish without D-Day stripes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 That's a mighty fine P-38, in my preferred scale! The Hasegawa kit scrubbed up beautifully in response to your touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
