A study in NMF - P-38 Lightning

I don’t know why, but I like to build a model with interesting markings flown by unknown pilot. Beautiful aircraft deserves a beautiful lady, so Vivacios Virgin II, flown by Ian B. Mackenzie  in Belgium in  1944 was my choice. Decals came from Kagero topcolors book. I can't remember exactly how many different shades of Alclad paints were used on this one, but I am more than satisfied with the end result. Although Hasegawa's lightning is pretty old kit, it was pleasurable build.
