ID:	1234281 Hello all,

    Attached are a few pics of a P-51D that I completed a couple of months ago. The kit was Eduard's #11134, Chattanooga Choo-Choo; I chose another scheme [obviously!] that just looked "right" to me. I think the Eduard P-51 kits are the best to date, although I still have a couple of Tamiya's Mustangs on the shelf. I have another Eduard Mustang in progress, this time adding their engine and gun bay Brassin sets to the build. So many projects, so little time... Thanks for looking!

        Great result, well done Charles.
        Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

          Very nicely done Charles. I like the scheme you chose, adds a bit of colour.

                        Hawker,

                        I'm glad you made that connection. I have little talent with weathering so far, so I try to model the aircraft as it might have been delivered to the squadron base, has received their colors, and is ready for it's first sortie. Glad you liked it!
