Peterpools Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 I found these photographs online while I was looking for a P-47 build I did. The Tamiya 1/32 P-51D Mustang, Tuskegee Red Tail: Dutchess Arlene, was a build thread I did on the LSP forum years ago. I thought it would be nice to share them, as I do not have the files any longer, just the model in the display case. From what I think I remember; the kit has the Barracuda cockpit detail set and an Alclad NMF (my first NMF). Enjoy 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocRob Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 What a beauty, Peter, nice and shiny NMF, love it. Cheers Rob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterpools Posted January 14 Author Share Posted January 14 Thanks Rob So very much appreciated. I was surprised to see the build online a thread with links to other LSP builds on the forum. I got a kick out of seeing those photographs after so many years. She pretty much looks now as she did then as the display case keeps out about 95% or more of the dust and doesn't get direct sunlight so there hasn't been any paint fading that I can see with these old eyes.

KevinM Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 That looks really Nice Peter is that a grey anti=glare panel? I have one grey also and questions were raised about that my answer it's the color they show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterpools Posted January 15 Author Share Posted January 15 Thanks Kev, much appreciated. The anti glare panel is OD but I have no idea whose paint I used back then. Good chance it's Tamiya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterpools Posted January 15 Author Share Posted January 15 Thank you Brother Bear. It has been a long time since that build and if I remember correctly, a big part of my build inspiration was your IAF Mustang build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
