I second that OT!
You must like your Mustang's if your putting yourself through all that hardship mate!

Also with regards to your comments on the RN Corsair's, I didn't even notice some had chopped wings!
You know me though I wouldn't have taken them off as I feel it'd be too much work.

For Mustangs, i'm willing to put in some work, cause it's one of my fav.
planes. But should have looked for a different clear part for that damn light - i' m still carving :-p

paint and decals to follow soon.
I used Humbrol metalcote silver for priming, for a try. For an enamel, it dries very quickly!
The detail on the Mistercraft Mustang is so soft, my usual grey rattle can primer alone would drown some of it!
Those "gun muzzles" on it were done by the famous "hot needle method" :-D
there were just indentations in the plastic, for guns, here´s a pic how it looked before:

Coming along nicely Crash!

I've been working on the T.12 over the last 2 nights as a mojo restorer, Barriers happen to be a major help towards me regaining my mojo.

All that's left to do is the antenna, decals on the nose section and the nose glass.

Everyone else says"you can never have to many Spitfire's"
Whilst that maybe true I do think I'd prefer an unlimited supply of Harriers......

Haha no worries Mark :).

Here is another one I've finished and is my take on Harrier T.10 ZD656 from 3(F) Squadron RAF Cottesmore, Interesting that the real Aircraft actually wears white titles instead of the normal Black:

I was going to weather her but I decided to instead leave her clean as though she had just been transferred over from 20(R) Squadron complete with covers, I will be adding remove before flight tags but they'll be shown later.
