Here is Doug's first model: This is the academy 1/48 P-38j painted with model master enamel. Decals are from aeromaster. Weathered with oils and pastels. The kit had some moments but after everything was said and done it was okay.
This is the Tamiya 1/48 A6M2 zero painted with model master enamel. Decals are from the kit. Weathered with oils and pastels. Photo etch interior from Eduard. Paint chipping simulated with aluminum paint on a small piece of foam. Not much to the kit, But went together really good. Nice kit.

At some point, Seekman is going to run out of models(!) so you need to send me your photos and writeups! See ya next week!
