Revell 1/48 P-51D Mustang- Big Beautiful Doll (My 3rd Build)

Post by UKguyInUSA »

Hello Guys,

Below is the YouTube link to my build video and photos of my completed Revell 1/48 P-51D Mustang in the "Big Beautiful Doll" markings, that I'm just including into the "Air gallery" section of the forum, as I never did this when I completed the model.

This was my 3rd build since starting modeling during January of 2014 and this model was completed on March 18th.

Thanks for taking a look guys and commenting.

Cheers :cheers2:

Thanks, Martin....I did this back in March, but forgot to add it into the "Air Gallery" section of the forum, and, it was only my 3rd build at that time :)

Hello Mikey thanks for taking a look and commenting, much appreciated! :) :thumb1:

I use a mix of black and brown paint diluted with Iso-Propyl alcohol at about 25% paint 75% Isopropyl then dry-brush it on, then build it up thicker closer to the exhausts and tapering off the further from the exhausts.

Cheers :cheers2:
