Two P-51B's

[JohnB]

Just for grins I decided to post some shots of both my P-51B conversions. The base kit was the Trumpeter kit. The nose on the USAAF a/c is from a Revell "D".

The nose on the RAF a/c is from a old Monogram kit. I hope you enjoy perusing 'em. Please remember to click on the 1st photo for best resolution and to view the photos as a slide show. (Yes, it makes a big difference!)

Agreed Ernie, thanks. Too bad Trumpeter do it right in the first place.

Wow, the conversion work is perfect!!!  Hard to do once, and you did it twice.  Fantastic!  Chris

Thanks! Takes a good bit of trimming, puttying, and sanding but a very possible "conversion". If I had another doner "D", preferrably Revell, I'd likely do another one.

Thanks Stuart. I decided that was the only way to get a half way decent P-51B. I may do another at some point.
