Northrop P-61a Black Widow " Borrowed Time" from Hobby Boss

Love it!   I had to get a replacement (first kit had a super glue accident...).   I have assorted resin and PE but am just waiting for the enthusiasm to start the dang thing!

 

Again, looking great!

 

Cheers,

Great looking P-61, but I really have to get this off my chest.  The Hobbyboss kit was obviously copied from the Revell kit, which has a huge shape issue.  Basically, the radome and front fuselage are too deep, off by about 1/8th in 48th scale, making the canopy look squashed.  Fixing it requires resort to photographic evidence, because I have yet to see a set of drawings with the correct profile.  Anyway, great P-61, one of my all time favorites.
