Wow again Kev :)

Very very nice.  I've wanted that one just because of the MADU name.  Kinda fits with the Nomads


Maybe if we get lucky, the early model Pudgy from the 475th will get to fly wing on that late 475th bird someday.

I'm thinking he's pretty close on the red.  Granted it's a scan but the red looks about the same on the real deal

It's for a 44th FS, 18th FG, 13th AF P38.  Doesn't belong to MADU.

Another view of MADU

The artwork in front of the word MADU is the same as on the boom radiator intakes without the blue.

Thanks Dan, think this is it unless you can see anything.
Did some light weathering.
Added that extra art on the nose, although it doesn't scale very well.
