JohnB Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Calling this one done. Additions to the model were: Vector resin cockpit, FineMolds belts, replacement prop and wheels from stash of leftover parts, Master Model brass cannons, exhausts from my stash. All markings (decals) are from my decal stash. Painted with Colourcoats and MM. Thanks go to Rockie Yarwood for the kit! I hope y'all like the results of my efforts! Thanks to Jeff I see that this a/c was in 268 Squadron. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CANicoll Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 John, Beautifully done! Very nice lines on the camo as well. Beautifully feathered. You must have a massive stash of parts!! Another work of art, well done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I have a heck of a lot of left over and spare parts, pieces and decals as a result of over 50 years of modelling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belugawhaleman Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 Nice! Once again John..... A superb finished model done quickly! John, I don't know big your stash is but I think you're going to run out of Mustangs! Please, as a favor, build a Brewster Buffalo..... Now That would be cool! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockieYarwood Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 She's a beauty, John! Glad I could help out - and you have inspired me to take a look at building one of mine... Cheers, Rockie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 That looks really great and it is very nice to see one of those built. Cheers Dennis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I built a Tamiya 1/48 one YEARS ago and modified it to a -3. I agree that a 1/32 one would be cool and a bit different. I'll have to check around and see what's available, etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do decide to build one I'd recommend getting a Vector cockpit set. I got mine here: https://www.ultracast.ca/searchresults.asp?Search=Vector+1%2F32+P-51&Submit= Not cheap but it is the best price I could find and WAY better than on ebay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
