1st PLACE BEGINNER: P-61 Black Widow of Maj. Carrol C. "Snuffy" Smith

Great job. I'm going to be starting a 1/72 Airfix Black Widow for a "Spin-a-Prop" Group Build on another site.

I'm currently decaling the Monogram 1/48th scale P-61, which I'm building as Time's-a-Wastin'. Thanks to the photos above, I've corrected the kit decals for the tail. But now I've noticed another problem with Monogram's decals. The nose art - the actual "time's a wastin'" sargeant - is MISSING AN ARM!! Look at the photo of the actual aircraft and compare it to the decal on the model. The arm pointing forward at the sign to Los Angeles is missing on the decal.

Just wanted point this out. I never would have known without barneybolac's photos.

Seeing this finished makes me want to build another one (ie do it better!)..... because this is a job well done.
