It's not the fanciest model, but hey, I got this far in about 2 hours.

It's not the kit that counts - what counts is why you're building it - I'm certain your son will enjoy it! Respects.

I'm up to 5 hours now, and I have the body painted, props painted, and the ladder on. Now all that is left is a clear coat, canopies and decals. Maybe some panel lines for a bit of detail...

Just finished the main canopy. Probably the best one I've ever done. I usually screw up one line or something.

Doing some research on a Doolittle B-25 I was planning and I made several notes. I know your complete with this build but I thought I'd share some things in case you do it again:
- Doolittle raiders did not have machine guns in the nose. I think this was for weight saving.
- They put literal sticks of wood in the tail to make any potential enemy THINK there were MG's in the tail.
- the navigators window right behind the pilots (top of fuselage) was not there on this version.

Hope this helps.
