Lovely RAF Mustang David - can't say I'm familiar with the "firewall" scheme, or rather I am now I've seen yours :grin:

Those Korean markings are a great choice.

Thanks Shaun, the Korean F-51 is now almost finished, the airframe is being weathered to look like a machine operating from a semi-jungle arena and is at that awkward stage of washes and powders when it has that 'worse before it gets better' look and it either next just 'looks right' or seems awful. The stores and airscrew are being painted and the end is in sight.
