Here's my last one for this group build.

Hasegawa 1/72 P-40N. Skymodels markings for a bird from the Burma Banshees, with national markings from the spares box. Wheels are from the Academy P-40.

I still can't believe you brush painted that. I could never do that! Really looks good man! I like your deployed drag chute too, nice touch!

Done with time to spare even! I've got more images and more detail shots I'll be posting to my build thread and over in the Display case or Critique forum later, but for now enjoy these:

1/72 Revell DeHavilland Vampire FB.5 of RAF No. 112 squadron. Actually an old Heller kit reboxed. Not my best model ever, but it will do. I added weight in the nose, but apparently not enough, hence the clear rod under the tail.

Nice work all you last minuter's!

Nicolaas: I really like how you've got your Thunderbolt displayed. Don't see that too often. In fact don't know if I've ever seen an inflight display like that. Cool display for a great build!

Pete: bummer about not having enough weight in the nose eh? Maybe you need a pilot back there checking the elevator during pre-flight? Your Vampire looks great! :thumbsup:

Brutus: You must've spent as much as or more time applying decals as you did building the a/c!? Came out real nice though, the markings are different and the Woody the Woodpecker decal really sets it off!
