(...) Very cool, Shaun! I've wanted to take a shot at making a P-38, myself, but I've too many other things lined up at present - including a rebuild of my Corsair. (I was pretty happy with it till I came across your MOC's and now I want to try and (...) (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.build)

The models are both very nicely done! I like the use of tranparent bricks and slopes on the cockpit of the P38. It gives the impression of a multi-faceted front, just like the real cockpit. That's a great way to build a cockpit. The use of patterned (...) (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.build)

WOW! You definitely are too good at making WWII models. I love the amount of detail and level of accuracy you put into your models. Great job on both of the models. However, I must say I favour the 88 mm Flak Gun the most! ;-) (...) (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.build)

(...) Dude, I've already told you this in email, but what the hey: They're awesome. I could tell it was a P-38 Lightning without looking at any captions. I eagerly await your P-51 Mustang and B-17 Flying Fortress. Mark W. (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.build)
