Guillows P-38 Lightning

Finished the P-43…clear coat is not completely dry, so it’s a little shiny in a few spots. I had fun with the exhaust and turbo underneath the airplane, I painted it to look heat cycled.
Anyway…here are the pics…

Then it was placed on the second shelf next to the P-47D. The other P-47D it replaced got moved to another shelf.

Now for the complete WW2 collection thus far…

Well…I think I need a break from 1/72 scale airplanes for a while. ;)

And I fed my squirrels…

This is only a few of them… there is a big family in the woods behind my house. I used to hear owls all the time, but not lately, so the squirrel population is growing fast! ROTF

Good morning Dean. OH Boy your “ADHD” has taken over this log of the P38. I think you should rename it a collage of WW1 and WW2 planes. ;). Fun to read though and some nice additions to your collections. Cheers Grant
Thanks... I didn't want to create 10 build logs and show every step for the 1/72 aircraft, so I just was keeping everyone up to date on what I have been working on. I did however get around to testing how I will cover the P-38, and it looks promising! Now I have to get back to covering the Nacelle for the left side of the P-38...

Ps - I am the real ricochet rabbit! ROTF

I wanted to share that I found some rare 1/72 scale WW2 models... Heinkel 112 V10, Boulton Paul Balliol T.2 and a Seversky P-35. Glad to be adding them to my collection. I have almost all of the more popular aircraft, and will now have to be on the lookout for more rare aircraft. ;) But I still have many in boxes to keep me busy in the future. ;)
It is now time to get out the P-38 and resume covering it with wood...
