This is my humble opinion

If you're going to have the props rotating it really doesn't matter what the shape of the blades look like as they will be rotating and hard to see.  Or are you going to have it as a static model most of the time and running occasionally

 

Cheers

Static most of the time, so I'd like them to look decent. I'm actually interested more for future builds, as I have a few of these kits. I'm just experimenting on this one.

Contact Resin also made them and Cutting edge to. But they are out of production. But you may find them.

Tim, I know you were looking for some markings for this build. I have the following two from a Kagero book if you are interested in them at all. I'd be happy to send them to you free or charge:

Just a heads up: I made contact with "Must Have Models" in France, and he has both the 1/32 P-38 Contact Resine prop sets and wheel sets in stock for 15 euros each, plus shipping. If you want some, he can be contacted at "musthavemodels(AT)yahoo.fr". 

 

Yes, you have to replace the (AT) with an @ symbol. I have no idea if that really helps keep bots from spamming his address, but it's worth a shot.

C'mon in Rick. P-38 Party :m0152:

 

I am still In the tired of sandIng stage right now.  It's ready for some scribing before I glue the wing to the fuselage.   And... One of the booms has a slight twist.  It will require an amputation to correct it.
