And.. I started the P-38. I was feeling warlike.
The problem is... I already have a plastic P-38, from a very bad brand (I didn't know) and I was going to make in paper the metalic plane depicted in the book.
But, I'm makin the Stranraer and the Stranraer has its undersides aluminium.
Quarantine and living in Venezuela, I have enought paint to make one or another, not both.
So, the P-38 is going to be olive and gray. I was thinking about the Porky II, a well know and depicted plane, but... I want invasion bands.
Meaning that my paper model is going to be the P-38J-10-LO Scat II from the 434th FS, 479th FG, 8th AF, USAF.
And because this afternoon enjoyed another blackout, I started to cut the parts.
There is a small difference between the plastic and paper model, about 2% so far. I hope there is not bigger when I finish.
The Stranraer... welll I've been busy. Soon it will advance.
