Decals and matt coat in place, just attached the bombs and u/c spinner almost complete but realised I'd forgotten the yellow tips!

Need to do a little more weathering on the tyres to get it in place on the base plus add a flat spot.

All that left is pitot tube, open cockpit door, radio aerial and dorsal light.

I have never felt the urge to build a Mustang, but seeing this and a couple of other great builds I could be tempted.

T'is looking good Andrew.

So here it is finally finished and mounted on the base, with added oil leakage!

Wow thats fantastic, love the base with the oil leak!

[Guest]

Thanks - its those little details that make it work I reckon.

[Guest]

Awesome dio Nice to see the Mustang in RAF colours.

[Guest]

This is really good! It does make a change to see a Mustang in anything other than USAAF colours & the quality of the painting / weathering is excellent.

It seems to 'fit' on the base so well & that's a testament to your skills Andrew.
