P-38 Lightning group build - Are we there yet???

OK, first my confession: I have never (NEVER) built a P-38 model. Over the past few years I have received 4 (count 'em: 4!) of Revell's 1/48 P-38J as gifts from well-meaning relatives that just want to buy me something they don't see on my shelf already. It's obviously a sign, and now I've got to build at least one and display it prominently.
Who's interested in joining a group build, hosted by a Lightning rookie?
Rules will be few folks:
- Start date is November 1, 2010.
- Deadline is ~extended!~ June 14, 2011. Let's call this a "soft" deadline though, we're just here for a good time!
- Any version of the P-38 Lightning, in any scale, is allowed. Let us know what version you're going after.
- Out of the box or goofy with aftermarket goodies - completely up to you.
- What-ifs are allowed, just make sure you aren't representing it as a real plane.
- Crossovers with other Group builds are allowed, as long as you're allowed on the other side.
- "New builds only".
- Please, provide pics as you are progressing. Because I want to see how you are all doing this!! ;)
- Do I need to say it? Have fun!
- The badge for those participating is below. Feel free to add it to your signature as soon as you are able - somebody may notice it & decide to join up late.
