Thank you so much!

Very nice! Maybe someday I'll feel competent enough to justify buying this kit.

You’re competent enough to build any kit, because you don’t need to impress anyone but yourself.

Thank you!! It's an incredible kit, I'm sure you'll enjoy it if and when you do!

I'm in love with the Bugs Bunny on here-- did you paint it yourself? It looks so good!

DKside41 [OP] 2 points · Jun 2024

Right?? It's so oddly silly, I love it haha. I do not have the hand eye coordination for that unfortunately, that was a decal set I bought a while back!

You don't happen to remember which set it was, do you? I might have to get my hands on them...

Thanks for sharing!

I do thankfully! They are Kits World's, just look up Kits World P-38 decals Double Trouble, you should be able to find the set of them, looks like ebay has quite a few sellers

Thank you! I'd love to see you post more of your work

Well done! What paints did you use?

DKside41 [OP] 2 points · Jun 2024

Thank you so much!! I use Alclad II Airframe Aluminum on top of gloss black, it gives an incredible metallic look
