Here’s my latest: Monogram’s old 1/48 Black Widow. It’s finished as a P-61B of the 419th Night-Fighter Squadron, based on Mindanao in
1945.

Aftermarket additions are True Details wheels, Quickboost guns and engines, Vector transparencies, and Superscale decals. My own little touches are braces on the nosewheel mudguard, wiring and valvegear on the engines, leading-edge intake covers, finer dipole antennae, closing up the cooling gills on the right engine, and better grilles under the engines. The paintwork is Humbrol aerosol black over Halford’s primer, with some help from Klear, and weathered with 3B pencil and chalk pastels.
