    Thanks guys. Almost done w/P38-J. I'll have to draw in gear door outlines, finish decals, touch-up paint & affix canopy, and then start the base.

    Hold My Beer

    Some progress on this 1990 model, nice dash decal & two of the "hateful five" gear doors bashed. Left LED lamp does nice job w/color, right side incandescent lamp not so much.
