Default 1/48 Tamiya P-51B Mustang

I had met Lee Archer at the Gathering of Mustangs and Legends in Columbus, OH. A very classy guy. When he passed away in January, I decided it was time to build his mount. I used the Tamiya kit, Eduard color photoetch set and the decals from the Accurate Miniatures kit. I finshed this in February, building awfully fast for me.

Nice one.
You might want to lay the flats of your tires flat.
There was a time when a short littlle internet troll would pop up and yell about the non-filled panels on the wing of a Mustang build.

Default Wheels and Wing Panel Lines...

The friggin wheels looked flat on the workbench, maybe some night after a couple of beers I'll try to break them loose and fix that...

I have a Tamiya D Pony in the works that I filled the wing panel lines in with super glue. I ain't doing that again, I don't care how accurate it is....

CA is a pain the ass for that. The next Mustang wing I fill the panels lines on is going to be did with Mr. Surfacer. Maybe that shit will be easier to work with than CA.

Hey StyrenePilot,

That came out really nice!

Can you please tell me what color-mix (wash) you used in the panel lines?

Thanks,
Andrew
