Sweet P38 its gonna look great when finished !!! What is the wing span on that lit anyways it does look long.
Ok Field Marshal Manstein here is my 1/48 Dragon Ho
Started with the engines and center section
Lots of detail in this kit but it did have fit issues as was expected. But I didnt expect to find cracks in the wing roots in a very bad place. They are circled in red. I glued some .010 plasticard on the inside of the wings to fix the cracks.
Next up gluing the wings on the center section but first a test fit was in order, I read the reviews of this kit 
Now when I went to glue the wings on the instructions called for some pins to be used when assembling the wing to the center section, low and behold when I tried to use the pins I had an alignment nightmare on my hands with huge gaps and the wing didnt sit anywhere near square to the center. What a diabolical thing to do to us builders. So time to can the pins, you I tossed them in the trash bin. And heres what I ended up with.
No dihedral problems or much of a gap at all. BUT the nose is gonna take some work.
Got the nose glued on and this is where it was a couple of days ago.
