Maybe there is a difference between the D and Q models, but is the IP too far forward?

No, the IP is right where it should be.  The only noticeable difference is the change in wing guns from 4 .30's to 2 .50's in pods.

Just about ready for some paint but first it needs a little more attention to a couple of seams. Coming right along.

Great camo John. The white surfaces are really a nice touch making it an eyecatcher!

So far so good Peter. Those kit decals are awfully thin and delicate but, so far, they are behaving okay.

Nice John liking the looks of the colors being applied and the P-39 is not one of those planes that enamored itself to me but I like the look!

Thanks Kevin. Some times a good color scheme can make a not-so-good-looking a/c look pretty good! LOL
