Aifix 1/72 North American P-51D Mustang

Post by ScaleModelJedi »

Well I didn't manage to finish it in the short space I originally thought I would, But it's finished all the same. It's far from perfect as there are some parts I'm not happy with but it's done and I've learned a lot from the build.

The NMF was done with Vallejo metal color Aluminium, Semi matt aluminium and Dull aluminium.
Build thread: http://www.intscalemodeller.com/viewtop ... 87&t=18541

Flown by 1Lt Spurgeon Ellington, 'Tuskegee Airmen',
100th Fighter Squadron, Ramitelli, Italy, December 1944.
