Papa695s Airfix 1/24 P51 Mustang

[papa 695]

With the Mosquito nearly completed, I thought I’d post my build for Lee’s GB.

There’s 4 options, but I’m leaning towards the Dooleybird option.

Those decals look pretty good considering their age Ian... Couldn't see any yellowing at all in the pictures.

Good luck with the build.

Looks like a very nicely detailed kit Ian.......I can't help but think this is going to turn into an awesome build. I'll park next to Scottie if you don't mind.

 

[papa 695]

Got some more work done to this, mostly on the engine, still plenty to do.

For an old dear, she is certainly looking very nice. That engine, tell me you're not going to cover it up ?

The panels are meant to fit so you can remove them to see the engine and guns. If they fit well then I’ll be able to show it. If not I’ll have to think about another way.

 

[papa 695]

I’ve been slowly getting all the parts for the inside ready and fitted, still a few things to paint, but I’m getting there.
