I finally got around to digging out the grown up camera this weekend so here are the reveal photos for my Tamiya P-38F.

It's a cracking kit, let down a bit by the decals - the build thread is here

Thanks as always for following along

Cheers, Neil

Indeed ! Marvelous build ! Sure took great picture with the grown up camera ! Better than what I can achieve with my damn iPhone with no surroundings to improve them.

Tamiya decals... it's bad ! Had problems with a big one on my P-47. And all the stencils on my current 1/72 F16 are just way too bad.

this one was a great build to follow. And as always, a marvelous paint job.
