Dirk, what's that ugly-looking panel in the bottom of the fuselage just behind the nose? Undercarriage doors? Looks a bit odd -- I would have thought it should be a tight seamless fit?

Very nice little green B-29 I really like how it is displayed - you want do do another 50 or so :D

It might be worth taping around the nose door and just fill and sand it flush.
