Thanks Rob. I'm pleased with the finished model although it was a "chore" at times. Yes, now I can sit back and decide on what's next. -

As you know, this model, after preliminary work, sat on my SOD for several months. I finally decided to go on and finish it even though it was a PITA from the word go. I decided to modify it from a "B" to a "A" with the shorter nose, no drop tanks and a few other odds and ends changed. I wanted to do "Midnight Micky" but the only decals available are in 1/48. I rescaled the needed markings to 1/32 and made my own decals using my laser printer and clear decal paper. The props and spinners are AMS resin. The wheels are resin from True Details. I shortened the nose by about 1/4" or so for the "A". Paints are a combination of Testors and Colourcoats. National insignia and serial numbers are from my decal stash. Needless to say I"m glad to be done with this one! I hope y'all like it.
