Here's my minifig scale entry for Jon's P-38 Lightning contest (2 URLs) F-38 Impulse>> (URL) F-38 Impulse> The intakes on the front are built in 5 different directions if you include the text on the outside and the vents on the inside.

(...) That is amazing! The engines are wonderfully massive, and the landing gear is great... the reveresd canopy is pretty snifty too. Working the "38" in is really amazing, but I'd like to see one of the intakes in all red for comparison. (...) (21 years ago, 22-Feb-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) I've used the reversed canopy before, about 8 years ago, in (URL) this MOC>. I originally got the idea from Karim Nassar, but I can't find his design.
