I’m traditionally a 1/32-1/48 builder but grabbed this out of the stash and what a treat of a kit. Go grab one of these and build it, great experience. I would find a canopy mask set just to make it even more enjoyable.

OOB build added except for the PropBlur added for the inflight look. 
 

Cheers

Collin

Welcome to the forum Collin and what a grand entry, looks splendid. Would that be the 1/72 Hasegawa's J model?

It’s their J kit but with a 8-gun nose in place of the glass bombardier station. 

Glad you liked it.

Welcome to the forum Collin, nice Job on your Mitchell. I really like the faded OD paint job and the beautiful in flight display.

Super work. Did you miss taking off a canopy mask or was the forward port quarter panel painted over?

Keen eye…but it’s accurate. Late war gunships typically left an armor plate there for added protection. They might have come from the factory based on some photos I’ve seen.

That's interesting, I didn't know that. I guess every bit of armour you can get is a good thing!

A Nice build up Collin! I built up the Airfix 1/72 in the last month it was a nice kit also I have the Eduard reboxing of Hase in the stash.The B-25 is possibly my favorite bomber even though my Father flew in the 92BG during WWII.:unworthy:
