Very nice... Even more impressive being done in 1/72. Is the folded life raft behind the pilot seat a kit part, or something you scratched up yourself?

Nice work, Manny! As already said, even more so in 1/72! Keep 'em coming.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

That area was very prominent with the canopy open so I scratched a raft outta modeling tape and painted it...some other scratchin' in there as well...

Thanks...the mug? It is a LIMITED-RUN affair but if you hit Echo up he may be able to lay his hands on one for you...
