Ello Mike! Nice build. Looks like you used some alternate markings from what's on the box of the later version (Operation Torch Lightning huh?)
It's cool you can choose an earlier model of P-38 with the different engine scoops.

I want to get one of those Revell 1:32 Lightnings myself. Though I don't think you can get it in different earlier options other than the J.

You could start hanging them up with fishline from the ceiling. You've got a little more room with 1/72 though at least.

I think that's why I like some of the 1:32 Revell models. Though the landing gear is less detailed (or sometimes wrong altogether) they are retractable like a 21C prebuilts, so you can hang them up or display landed. Kinda cool.
