    Ron's Academy 1/72 Mustang P51-D (Lee's Mustang G.B.)

    Here is my finished aircraft for Lee's 'Mustang' G.B.

    Thanks to Lee for suggesting the G.B.

    A great, no issue kit. All freehand, brush painted using Vallejo Model 'Air' Acrylics.

      Beautiful finish Ron!!! A quick build, in fact so quick, I missed it........Nice to see it on the ground and even nicer that you gave the good lady a chance to rest her arm from the last chucking up on your bridge dio......Top job Sir!!!...

      Prost

          Nice finish Ron. The few Academy kits I've built have always been decent builds.

                      Chuffed you approve, young Dave.

                      I have it in mind to snip off the undercarriage and prop. blades and get the missus into 'Chucking mode', but seeing as o'w the pilot is absent, there is another option...
