Thunderbolt "Eileen" 1/48 from Academy!

[ThunderThud]

I found this to be a very nice kit.went together well,i also liked the color sheme and markings.Instead of the kits decals that sucked i used the sheet from Microscale, has TrueDetail tires from Squadron shop, Painted in Model Masters enamels.most of the model is out of the box except for Hypodermic needle guns.The checker nose was masked and hand painted not a decal.8)

Luck had nothing to do with it. You took the time to do it right.
