Academy 1/72 kit. I built this at the same time as a Revell P-51B as a comparison of the two kits. This one has a True Details cockpit set though nothing can be seen of it through the canopy

Decals are home-made, invasion stripes are painted.

Excellent job. I love the detail on such a small model.

Very nicely done indeed. You've certainly cracked the NMF which is unforgiving to put it mildly.
Cheers

That is some very nice work there Mike, and in 1/72 scale too. With the amount of detail i would say 1/32, love it bud a big five.

Have fun, John

Hi Mike, one to be very very proud of, stunning paint job with nicely highlighted panel lines and rivets all at 1/72 - 5 Star from me too. Cheers Derek

Thanks for the positive feedback, I appreciate the kind comments.

A really good model - nice one. But which did you prefer Revell or Academy ? Both can be very good, but I've never done a back to back.

Thanks for the comment Colin. The Academy is probably slightly easier to build (except for an annoying rear fuselage join that needs cleaning up) but I think the Revell has the edge in accuracy, though it's also a pretty straightforward build. Here's the Revell kit for comparison:-
