P-51b Mustang of 112 Squadron **Finished**

[Motley]

Looking really good Splash, sure youll be able to finish this one in time

There will now be a short intermission whilst the gloss coat dries, I have used an acrylic gloss that goes on slightly milky but dries clear.

Main parts completed just have to wait for the paint to dry, before adding the decal.

a bit of filler was required around the cockpit

That is looking rather nice Splash.

Any chance of an update before I finish work at 5?

Built the US version a couple of years ago,well pleased with the results of the build and finished kit,by the looks of this build I could be rummaging through the loft!

Sorry Tonto I missed you message, I'm still waiting for the gloss to dry so no photo.

I think I have used the wrong grey for the underside I have used light grey and I think I should have used sky grey, it might need a quick blow over

[splash]

On short finals the decals have gone on OK just the red dots to add, once they are on I will add the U/C

[IrishAir]

Nice work Splash, I'll be doing the same kit for this GB, how have you found it overall?

Cheers,
Paul

Hi Paul

It's a great little kit no problems with the fit, good detail and you get two sets of sharks teeth one US and this UK version.

I have had to brake out the lego until the u/c sets, so it's time to stop and eat.

So nice. Coffee cup, clock and legos. A proper blitz

Supper time is over back to work now update in one hour.

Almost there I made an error and painted the underside with the wrong grey so I have hairy sticked on two coats of a lighter grey, all thats now left is the prop tips and to add some small items like the HF mast.











See you in an hours time.

Well done Splash almost there and it is looking brilliant

[splash]

I’m now calling this one finished. I will let it all settle down for a couple of days then give it a bit of weathering, the fine panel lines are just crying out for a wash but the paint is still to fresh.

I can fully recommend this kit it is a real gem.

Thanks for all you comments and support it has been a fun day.

Regards
Splash
