Tamiya 1/48 p51 mustang

Post by Paul »

Again just like one of the JU87's i completed yesterday this is being built as a thankyou to a friend.

Cockpit sprayed and weathered.

Ignore my "nail varnish"

Just noticed i need to paint to back of that seat black i somehow missed it before.

Gonna be a quick build so should be done and dusted soon enough.

Needed to close up the rear landing wheel so thought the best way was to cut some plasticard to size and glue and fill it, it worked ok.

Following phils build on the website i primered in black then used citadel mythril (sp) silver and crapping myself i set to work with the airbrush it came out well and phils right its great paint.

Sprayed some chainmail in places on the wingtops subtle but you can just about see it. And masked off the cockpit for the black using tamiya x1.

Well its all done.

Nice kit to build and a nice metallic paint to paint. I just hope my mate likes it. I even fancy building one for myself now.
