Work is progressing but I have nothing to show of any importance yet.

After what felt like a long day of Memorial day services filled with flags, prayer and gun fire I inspired enough to work through the drowsiness and get some modeling done. Here is the progress on the A and B kits

The P-51 A needed some yellow stripes put on prior to the Olive Drab top coat.

The P-51B needed some white stripes prior to the Olive Drab top coat.

Here are the A and B with the D currently in progress as well. That build can be followed in the "Detroit Miss" thread or from my workbench thread.

These looks excellent, Dirk. Seems like perfect masking ;-)
