That is an awesome model!  Neat use of those little computer tiles, clever.

Sorry I'm coming in late to this thread; thanks for the compliments, everyone.
And yes, there was a recce variant of the B-25; it was known as the F-10-NK, but
it had the canopy nose common to the early variants of the Mitchell.  My version
is of a J model, and the nose is to scale, believe it or not.  There is one
component of my model that is taken from the F-10-NK, though; the fact that
there is no top mounted turret...
