    Thanks Paul. I've thought about getting one of those F2A's but have never gotten around to it. Might be a good build though if it's a F2A-3 in USMC blue gray. I did a conversion on a Tamiya kit many years ago which turned out really nice.

    I don't think you will have any problems.

    Sounds good Peter. The mod isn't all that difficult.

    Completed and RFI. https://forum.largescalemodeller.com/topic/19715-p-51-racer-risky-business-rfi/

    Another racer P-51 in the books. Revell kit with Draw decals. Painted with Tamiya Gloss White and Alclad aluminum. This particular a/c had several different "looks" so I picked this early setup without the funny looking spinner and wingtip racing mods (just clipped wings).

    I just add a 5/16th (or thereabouts) plug.

    I started this one last week. Decided to do it as "Texas Ed" using some left over decals and parts left over from previous builds. Fortunately all the needed parts are there even though they are all left overs from previous builds. Coming along okay so far!

    Thanks Peter. It's Alclad aluminum.

    Painting completed. I'll attach the gear, flaps and ailerons next. Decals are on the way so it should be ready for them when they get here. Some areas will need some clear gloss before applying them however.

    About 80% of the painting is done and I expect to get the rest done either later today or tomorrow AM. Coming along pretty well.

    Just about ready for the gloss white.
  12. JohnB
    Sure might help!

    I guess it is what it is Peter and we just have to work with it. It makes for a "learning experience" (I hate that phrase!) and you know what to expect on future builds.

    Thank you Kevin. It was still a problem but not quite as bad. Lots of putty and sanding. LOL

    Making good progress.

    I was very disappointed as I wanted to get this one built. Cool looking airplane. Oh well. 😕

    Thanks Carl. I plan to do a Atlantic schemed one at some point.
  19. JohnB
    LOL Thanks!

    Turned out about the same so I'll stay with the 1st one.
  21. JohnB
    Thanks. I'm going to do another prop and use chrome silver instead of the Alclad aluminum since the real one was chrome. We'll see how it turns out.
  22. JohnB
    A bit of progress.
  23. JohnB
    Should look good.
  24. JohnB
    Revell kit and Draw decals. Pretty much OOB except FineMolds belts and racer mods. Just getting started. Stay tuned.
  25. JohnB
    Pretty bad for sure.
