Well, Smashing Time and I apparently have been thinking of P-38's lately, LOL! Only mine are for the Skyunlimited version, and his look much better than mine too!:salute:

Here are two paints I am almost done with. These have all new lines, rivets, and bump maps.

Nice job! Looking good!
One detail: on the buckeroo, shouldn't the antiglare on the enginepods extend a bit onto the wings?
Look here:

For those interested, I did similar paints for the FSD version, though 'Gentle Annie' was the bare metal version

Thanks Jankees!

Actually they do extend onto the wing, but not as much as yours do.:redf: I can easily fix that though, thanks for pointing that out:salute:

I wish the SU P-38 didn't have the whole texture on one sheet. As you can see, the nose art gets fuzzy when you have to shrink it down so small. Not a complaint, just a wish.:jump:

Yours looks great! I wish I had the FSD version also.

They look great! What model are they? "L's" I hope. Gotta have the dive brakes. But with the European markings, they're probably "J's".
