That looks great Rob :thumb1: I am always amazed at the quality of the finish you achieve using a brush :clap: . I always seem to have a struggle with brush painting silver and aluminium.

Great build and well painted lines, and a smooth Finnish, the upper fuselage looks like a matt black, really liking the prop-shaft as-well, even the gauges look really intricate and well detailed.

That paintwork is brushed, even more impressed, that is one sweet Mustang, looking forward to seeing her with her makeup on.

Looks really nice, the paint looks really smooth too. This is going to be my next kit, so I was wondering if it was brushed, what paint you used?

At the moment I'm thinking of using Citadels Mithril Silver I think its called (I still have the old branding names).
