Looking great Paul - I've no objections at all to an extension, but then again I'm not a participant, so there's probably something in the rules about that

Getting there...

Needs a dull coat and some exhaust staining - should be able to get that done this afternoon.

Cheers Mark and Sissel!

Calling this one done - there's a couple of minor touch-ups to do, but I wanted to get photos done tonight before the light went.

This is a Mustang III of 441 (Canadian) Squadron, Germany, summer 1945:

A mostly enjoyable build - its a nice kit - and I'm quite pleased with the outcome. I've built 5 or 6 of the Accurate Miniatures P-51 kits and I can recommend them if you can get a hold of them. Hopefully, Italeri will re-release some of them in the future, as they've done with a couple of other AM kits.

Great photos and a lovely build!

I've only built an Accurate Miniatures A-36 and really enjoyed that. Great kit.

Thanks, Sissel.

I added the exhaust staining after these photos were taken, and added some Solvaset to the serial decals to get rid of the silvering. So it was officially completed at about 8:30 last night...!
