Revell 1/48 B-25J

Howdy!

Missed the GB, I started this before it started (by like two weeks.) But, I really like this build. Work was going crazy, so I didn't even have a lot of time to make a build thread. Even got the GF involved with the build! I need to put a ring on this one. She drew the plane I was making, it was awesome seeing her take interest in my hobby and us having a way to bond in my hobby (plus her starting to take a huge interest in aviation. She can ID a B-25 without any hints, it's awesome!) She even finished her drawing wayyyyyyy before I even got the plane done. She based it off of the box art. I'm trying to find a place to put the model and the framed picture together. She says she wants to start a trend!

Also, I don't know if I could ever build another model without buying canopy masks. It made my life soooooooooooo much better using them for the first time on this build. And I totally forgot to put weights in the nose, sooooo one of my spent .223 rounds is much cooler (and less fickle) than the boarding ladder thing (which I may have accidentally broke.)
