    Very nice result, Tom @tcinla
    I must admit that the open door looks great.

    Slick! That smooth aluminum really suits this one.

    The decals went on without a problem and I am calling it finished. Well, almost - I realized they screwed up with the serial for the vertical fin - it's not "H2043" it's "112043" and I am going to try and get the cross bar of the "H" off - or overpainted.

    One word comes to mind "Cute". The Jeep design reminds me of some of 30's cartoon characters. Something that easily could have been scale down to fit a child's hand too. Yet , the design had serious reason for being for training pilots to fly B-26 Marauders. It always neat to see forgotten trainers. I hope Dora Wings can come up with a Vultee BT -13 Valiant/Vindicator in 1/48th scale. That would be icing on the cake.

    Neat build of a forgotten trainer or looked over supporting actor of the big story of WWII.

    Really nice, Tom (@tcinla). Some of these new model companies are really rushing through the learning curve. I may need to move my AT-9 closer to the front of the list.

    These new companies (Dora, Arma, etc.) are really blurring the lines of what “limited run” means. Really nice looking kit, can definitely see the Curtiss/Wright family lineage in its lines.

    @stephen-w-towle, Dora has planned an A-31/35, P-66, AT-19 and SNC-1, among others. Considering, I'd say it wouldn't hurt to get your hopes up.

    What a great result, my friend @tcinla!
    Yeah, just some silver paint applied with a 10/0 brush and your H will become a I I... 🙂

    Beautiful build, Tom @tcinla
    Indeed a very nice cartoonishly looking plane like mentioned by Stephen.
    That small correction should be an easy task for you.
