I love that plane BB, I saw real pics of it somewhere online. I'm guessing its a tail sitter since you have that cap holding it up? .. my first P38 sat too.

Is it the decals for the green dragon like on your 1/48 or is it a different dragon? Because I just found the 1/72 by Minicraft and it has a light orangy dragon. If its that decal then no need to ship..

Quick update, wings are on and putty has been given to the wings and stabilizers. Still some areas to do, but very minor.

Nice job Maglar- It's a beaut!

Hey BB, is your B-24 a early or late model? The nose turret looks like it's too high above the rest of the nose...or were they all like that? Nice *cough cough* dragon, by the way!

Applied my Alclad alum, it was going well until I saw some seams and hairs pop up! It doesnt matter what one does, something will always float onto the model during airbrush time. Bad thing is I wasted fair amount of Alclad doing the whole plane but the good thing is I can see the problems and fix them and go back. Fixing seams and sanding off any particles in the paint. It looks really nice all lumed up!
