A few little paint touchups still to be done but the P-38 is all
together. Like most P-38 builds, at this point it's a duel to get
everything on without breaking something else off. Neither main
landing gear strut survived the painting process, they have both been
drilled and pinned. The main gear tires have been flattened on the
bottom and the nose gear strut was also
drilled and pinned, in that case to lengthen it to get the tail low stance
that P-38's had. The prop logo decals shattered as soon as they hit
the water. Maybe I will find some later.
