Birthday Build Time

For my recent birthday my wife gave me this beautiful aircraft kit. The model itself is huge! The mold is a little older, 1974 I think, but the detail and fit are still good enough for my standard. I sat down with a choice "modelling fluid", which to me means a quality cream soda, and dug in. 

So far I have assembled the fuselage and painted the crew compartments. The P61 has a lot of glass so I wanted the cockpit and gunner compartments to look nice. Although it's a purpose built night fighter, some were used for ground attack in Europe. I will use it as a ground attack gunship for my U.S. army. It may see some use in my hex campaign.
