Did you grow up building Strombeckers and solid wood models? That's the most fascinating thing about your projects - they begin with an outline drawn on a block of wood. I would have guessed that getting the geometry correct for that proboscis was as tough a task as any. <br /><br />My late friend Jay Frank Dial used to build beautiful basswood scratch-builts as well. One day when he showed me a very fine 1/48 P-47 in Bud Mahurin's markings which he'd built to present to Mahurin, I asked him how he did it. "I just carved away everything that didn't look like a Thunderbolt." Probably an old line, but apt. But Jay enjoyed sustaining the mystery for us mere assemblers. Thanks for lifting the curtain on this one, however!

This is a most impressive model of an impressive plane. It's also a modeling subject that is favored with a good number of available photos, including interior pictures.
