1/32 Tamiya P-51D Early Cripes A'Mighty 3rd


Recommended Posts

This one was completed back in 2014. Eagle Cals George Preddy's markings depicted as 14th of June 1944.  This is the famous mount becoming an Ace in a single mission shooting down 5 enemy aircraft. 

 

Metallic finish using Tamiya AS-12 straight from the can on the wings, as per manufacturing specs wings were puttied, primed and painted due to aerodynamics constraints.

 

Flaps, fuselage, HStab painted with Alclad II.

 

Hexagonal thread tires from Barracuda.

 

Propeller blades, over sprayed with Bodney Blue Nose paint as shown in actual pictures of the real aircraft.

 

Enjoyable kit, superb quality.
