Thanks everyone.   I still have some things to add and mistakes I only just noticed to correct, but It's getting close.

Greebo the work you did on the default has to be seen to be believed.   I tip my hat at the amazing job.   It definitely helped in innumerable ways.   The parts for the landing gear alone must have taken forever to find on the blank map.   :salute

In this image, it appears that the nose has 3 different colors?  :headscratch:

Correct.  There is some dispute over whether or not the nose cap is blue or just a different metal shade.    For now I’m leaving it metal.  My previous iteration of this skin with the old shape had it blue.   (At a minimum we have the white stripe, light natural metal, and something else.)

It has been said the intent was to mimic droop snoot P-38s which had a glass bombardier nose.   Whether this was to entice an attack on an "unarmed" plane or help the droops blend in I do not know. 





And thank you, Hajo.
