Here is my custom XD P-38. I converted it to a F-5E photo recon variant. I modified the nose, but I just didn't get it quite as smooth as I wanted. Oh well. Here's the pics.

Nice work! Now you need to try and make the "droop snoot" variant with the glazed nose :wink:

Nice work Pokey.
You must have used a LOT of paint.

Looks great!

I think you're the first one on the forum to do a custom P-38. (?)

I wish there would be a re-release of the P-38.

I'd like to do a F-5 and a P-38M.
