Mine flew in the Burma China theater. He was a piano teacher for most of the rest of his life. In the early 1970's a student gave him a very well done P61 kit build done up with his actual ship paint and I'd numbers. Probably this same kit! It hung on the wall of his den till my nana sold the house. It is still a cherished family item.
I remember these from my childhood ( born in 67 ) , at least 50 years ago ...... ive built three or four of them with varius results...... keep building the old Monogram kits, they were wonderfull
There are things that never go out of fashion, like the Monogram and Revell, old models. The Big stuff, of these companies, like the B-29, B-24, B-17, B-52, B-58 (one of my favorite bombers), and also the giaaaaaant grrrrrrrreeeeeaaat! B-36, provides to you, hundred of fun hours of building. One more Time, a beautiful work, with an old Classic of Revell-Monogram. Thank you for this amazing video.

Sweet!🤗 I built this one last year. Good kit typical of the later Monogram kits with LOTS o features... I'm going to do a Great Wall version at some point...

Great work. Very nice Black Widows. I also have this kit at home and I will build it in the summer 😎✌️
weight can go anywhere forward of the main gear, but the further forward, the less weight will be needed, inside the nacelles behind the engines is a good place for bombers and such were nose room is limited.
Great job on these builds. I have one but can only imagine what it's like to build 3 together. Was wondering if you only have WW2 kits in your stash or if you may have Revell F-14's we could see you build?
So I’m new to modeling and scuffed this build up twice now. Third time is a charm. Question on how you applied those red long decals did you do them in one piece?
Did you have to prewash the kit. I E. Soap and water. I'm told that alot of these older kits require it so the plastic will adhere to the paints and glue
Other than the front landing gear, you didn't seem to have any of the problems thar are haroed on about this model. Why di you think yours turned out so well as compared to theirs. No fit issues involving booms, canopies or fuselage.
I think it was because I assemble the booms togather with the horizontal stabilizer, and then attactched it to the wing. Instead of 1 boom at a time. And of course sanding and cutting to dry fit the parts

Excellent work on all three kits built simultaneously! I really enjoyed your video and I agree with you it’s an excellent kit. I did build the vintage Monogram P-61 and I had fun with it.
