The MPM 1/48 P-63A

This can be a little bit of a pain to build, due to poor fit and low pressure injection molding, but the surface detail is niceand the shape
seems accurate to me.  Beware of getting the fuselage glued together straight, the resin cockpit floor needs a little reshaping or the nose will
try to go off to one side.  The instrument panel and vacform canopy also need very careful fitting.  The Propagteam decals need to be replaced,
even with an overcoating of liquid decal film the serial numbers and stars were extremely frail and didn't want to move once they hit the model.
