Looks good cnq
Monogram aren't bad, but certainly not up to Tamiya or Hasegawa in quality, or price for that matter.
Looks better than the Corgi diecast version, but it is a plastic kit, and not diecast model, so it should be.

Hey Snake,
Thanks for the comment. No it's not up to Tamiya quality but it's a decent kit and I enjoy working on it.
In the pics below you could see the Bombardier's equipment and it together with the Lancaster & die cast B25J

Looking forward to your build. I may do a B17F (1/48) in NMF too in future.
