Beautiful build Carl. I think the finish is spot on. And, I agree about the wheels. Putting the landing gear on is like putting stabilisers on a swan.
Cracking job

What a blast from the past. I remember building one of these my first time around.
What you've built looks spot on. Great job.

Further more there seem to be quite a combination of paint schemes on these planes and a few build variants pre and post war. I mentioned early on I would have liked to build a 1:48 scale but they don’t seem to sell it anymore but that said the 1:72 is pretty big so the 1:48 would have been huge.
