JohnB Posted June 12, 2023 Share Posted June 12, 2023 All done with this one. I used a Tamiya P-51D kit with the Halberd Cavalier F-51 conversion set to make this Bolivian AF F-51D. The only after market item was a new rear seat from my stash of unused parts and of course the supplied Halberd stuff. Painted with Mr. Color, Compucolor, and Testor's. I replaced the Halberd rocket stubs, which seem to be a bit over size, with some from my stash of unused parts. I decided to keep the a/c "clean" with no weathering. I hope y'all like the results of my efforts. 6 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
