Gadfly's P-51C / F6C Academy 1/72

Post by Gadfly »

Hi,

Another build from me this is the excellent Academy kit.
I have some Aeromaster decals for a late F6C with tail fillet.

The build has been going well and we're here already....

Paint on...

Main paint is Tamiya decanted AS12 with contrast panels in Gunze super metallics which are a joy to use...

I need to do the ID stripes on the underside...

Great job so far. I like the different tones in the metal panels.
