Much of what makes this ugly is that it is the B-25G-1NA instead of the J that most of us think of. The nose is shorter, has a different shape and it lacks the glass of course. I have already spoken to Oleg about the other ugly detail, namely that the wings outboard of the engine nacelles have too much anhedral angle (downward tilt), the airfoil is too thick, and has too great a curve to the top surface making hte wings look squat. . and. . well .. different froma B-25. Much like the P-51 gear, or the dihedral on the P-40 I don't think this will eb changed. That said I am sure the J model will look great with a brushed aluminum skin despite these shortcomings!S!TX-EcoDragonBlack 1TX Squadron XO
