Very nice work. But these KG200 planes always give me the creeps . . . Especially this one, as the Jug is my favorite USAAF fighter.

Funny you say that, I have always thought the jug was interesting because this "Razor Back" version always looked so funky to me it almost looks like an Axis fighter, but the bubble top version gave it a totally more modern Aliied fighter look in my opinion. The only other Razor back I think I have done was one of the 25 that were shipped to the USSR under lend lease act, the Russians thought they were junk so they were used as top cover over cities far behind the lines.

Here are some pics of it if you guys missed it back in the day, mine was not very good but maybe someday Ill do another:

It's funny, I kinda used to have the same feeling about the looks of the Jug, in terms of the difference between the razorback and the bubbletop. Over the years, though, a couple of things have changed the way the razorback strikes me. One was becoming more familiar with the original Mustangs, before they got a bubble canopy. I began to see both of the earlier versions more in light of the way they came to look later. And then, when I spent time as a wretched IL-2 addict, I came to love the P-47 as the absolute best of all the allied fighters in that flight sim. (Therein lies much controversy, as there are many who say the IL-2 P-51 flight model isn't nearly as good as it should be.) By the time I finally went through the 12-step program to rid myself of the IL-2 monkey on my back, I'd gotten to the point where I could beat any axis fighter -- set to have the highest pilot skill level -- 1-on-1 in a P-47.

Man those things look awesome I wish I had the skill you guys do. Painting is just my downfall I can paint anything else use to make a living painting apartments but when it comes to painting a small object i just cant get it done.

Your welcome man. I might just have to post some pics of mine so you guys can laugh at them. I have some really good ideas. Like right now I am working on a Bulge set up. But when it comes to painting the tanks and planes its my downfall.
