Looks nice, especially after being away from it for awhile. Haven't lost your touch.
Nice job Mark,
Recieving a model as a gift is like a shot of adrenaline that motivates me to get modelling done. For me - I think it has to do with knowing someone will be interested in the outcome.
Hope it keeps those modeling juices flowing.

Welcome back Mark! Glad to have you with us again!
Great job on the P-38. Wish I could do BMF like that. Maybe some day.

Outstanding work on the older P-38 Mark. It looks excellent. Latch onto that modeling *** and give 'er all she's got. You do fantastic work and I would sure love to see more from you.

Thanks for the pics and I'm glad you're back into it. You've done such a good job you've inspired me to dig out my P-38 from the stash and give it a go.
I'm finally retired. Now time I got, money I don't.
Hey nice model and cool story! That same kit was one of my first 'serious' kits back in the mid '80s too.

Great looking model. I am a big fan of using Bare Metal Foil for a natural metal finish. Only metal looks like metal.
Your comments and questions are always welcome.
If that is the Krylon Aluminum I think it is, that is the shiniest rattle can stuff I have ever used. It is so shiny the finish must be flawless, 'cause it shows every flaw- yours looks great!

Thanks for all the replies and comments gentlemen - feels good to get feedback from fellow modelers. Johnnyk - Your P-47 is beautiful!! I gotta try the steel wool next time. Now that I've got the "bug" back I'll post my next project soon.
Happy modeling
Mark

Go to this page to see how I apply Bare Metal Foil: WIP 1/48 Revell P-47N NMF using metal foil and rivet tool
The paper blending stick is a great tool for burnishing the Bare Metal Foil. It allows you to stretch the foil and it gets rid of all wrinkles. I no longer use a straight edgr to make the rivets. Making rivets freehand is quicker and easier.
Your daughter has good taste in boyfriends too. Nice guy. I remember building my future F-in-L the old Monogram P-61. Friends for life.
