Academy P-38J 1/72
This is a 2009 build. I was still finishing in semi-gloss back then, and didn't do much weathering - just some turbo exhaust and fuel stains, no panel wash or other shading/weathering.
I thought the rocket launcher tubes were interesting so added them, although I always think of the P-38 as a fighter vs. a ground attack aircraft (I wouldn't have added them but I have another P-38 in the stash, so...).
Very nice build...especially in that scale.
I like the bazooka tubes on your P-38. Well done on a nice looking Lightning.
Greg, one of my favorite aircraft. I think the only time I've seen bazooka tubes on the aircraft is one flown by the Twin Dragons, in the CBI. I agree it looks unique, being they are on the nacelle, not under the wings, really unusual.
Certainly representative of the type, and nice detailing in 1/72.
Very nice. I didn't know they ever had the bazooka... Awesome.
Greg,
Nicely done.
Beautiful job, different paint scheme for a Lightning.
Nice build.
The bazooka's give me an idea for a model refit I'm doing now, thanks for the inspiration.
Nicely done. I like the angled plexi base. Very old-school.
Splendid P-38 Greg, its a beautiful build. Nice and clean.
