tamiya 48 scale mustang D

[Guest]

Hi all this is a model of a mustang that was flown by Freddie .F .Ohr 2nd fs 52 fighter group


The model was primed with tamiya grey then given a coat of tamiya as 12 then I picked out a few panels in x11 the guns are made from three sizes of Albion alloys micro tube brass I added sway braces from pe scrap and oleo leg scissors from the same didn't do any weathering apart from exhaust stains as I wanted a clean new look hindsight I wish I had decals are from a company I think is called ministry of small aircraft production Al paints are tamiya acrylic


Please leave comments pos or neg as it's all a learning curve


All the best Roger

Amazing job. Great metal finish (undercarriage brilliant for this especially) and nice subtle exhaust effect.

I still have my 1/32 in tamiya in my. Stash and hope 1 day to do as good a job as you have achieved here. Love the subtle detail s x looks good with flaps and the undercarriage nice and clean. Awesome build

I also have the mustang in 32 scale it's going to be a nice build when I have practised my weathering skills I'll give it a go thanks you guys for your pos comments
