1/72 Dragon P-61B – Lady in the Dark

This was another commission build using Dragon’s 1/72 P-61A/P-61B Black Widow Night Fighter. The client is a huge fan of the Northrop P-61 and really liked the 1/48 scale I built last year. He wanted a 1/72 version in a case for his desk. For this build I used the Ares resin cockpit detail set, Eduard’s exterior photo etch set, Quickboost resin engines, Quickboost resin gun barrels for the upper turret, and Print and Scale decal set. The aircraft is mounted in an acrylic display case to protect it. The base was detailed to replicate a World War II Pacific island air field.
