Rick's Cornerstone 1-87 scale P-51 Mustang

[The Smythe Meister]

Well, I'm done with the decals and they ain't gonna get any better.......The gear is now on with gear doors and tires. I'll let that set up real good and we'll see if it will hold its weight when cured. Fingers crossed. When I unmasked the canopy......of course there was bleed under the tape line so I managed to carefully remove the excess paint and will try to polish the plexi a little tomorrow. All for now.[ATTACH]466065[/ATTACH]

Looking good Rick !
..... Looks like I better get a wriggle on if I don't wanna get left behind
Good stuff mate :smiling3:

OK........it's done....conditionally, that is. I intend to make a small diorama at some point with an airstrip, small grassy area with the bird, a couple of ground crewmen readying this crate for a mission......oh and a jeep with the pilot talking to the driver. Sound interesting? This model is just a small "tribute" to the men of Tuskegee who fought "two" wars at the same time to find their rightful place in the World. Hope you like it.

Just had a catch up. That's turned out very well indeed and a great tribute indeed.

Very well done and can't wait for the dio!

Dio sounds great. 'Tang' came out great.

[Tim Marlow]

Great stuff, worthy tribute as well.

[Mini Me]

Thanks for the nice comments Mark and Paul. The dio. won't be very large as I have cabinet space constraints, should be enough to get the necessary items required to set the scene though. :smiling3:

[Mini Me]

Much appreciated Tim. Glad you like it Sir. :thumb2:
