Very nice! Add the gun muzzles and then say finito. How often do we reach a point and say, “should I do more?”, then end up doing more than we should have?

Thanks, everyone. It's one of those kits we always intend to build but finds it hard to get to the top of the pile. So now this one has, but the C, G, J, and P-70 still rumble from bowels of the stash.
Here's some pictures. At the end is a couple with an Accurate Miniatures B-25C and P-51A, along with a Special Hobby Martin Maryland and Tamiya fuel truck. And then a spinning prop photo with the bonus of the left engine on the Maryland also running up. Sometimes the stars align, or at least the propellers. After I took them I saw that I had left the masks on the little windows below the gunner's station. Off now, :bag: but there is always something!

That is a fantastic build. Such a shame no one had an A-20 on their tables for sale at Syrcon. Not even a Devastator or Avenger.

Very nice finish and great group photo there John. :shoutout: :shoutout: :shoutout:
Although the single engine P-51 does look a bit out of place amongst the twins :hmm:
