Flying Barrel What-if part 1!

P 232/2
I finally finished this beast! My first model in... (mental math taking place) about 8 years. I think there are a few more things that could be done to this, but I'm sticking a fork in this one! Enjoy! Feedback is welcome.

Do 335 Conversion to P232/2
I started this conversion in back in October of 2012, and it has been a wonderful challenge to date. This is my first model in about 6 years, perhaps a bit ambitious... but fun none the less.
