Excellent work on those stripes. I'd love to do a D-Day aircraft, but I am still scared by the stripes. You've nailed it here, especially on something so small!

Really nice build, a bit odd about that canopy. I have only known that due to the glue.

I've said it before but it's worth repeating. I just can't hardly believe how good you 1/72 guys are at making these little kits look so darn good. Wowzers that's nice. Bow Down

Ty for posting this wonderful build.

i usually work in 1/48 but you've inspired me to try a 1/72 scale to learn the subtlies of weathering,  because yours is just right . Not too much or too little.  In that scale a little goes a long way I bet.
