Wolwe82 Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Evening guys, this is my last finished kit, P-51D from Airfix 1/72 kit Kits - World decals, built mostly OOB with few details added to the wheel wells and riveted fuselage + improved the fasteners around cowling. The paints used are agama alcohol based silver and aluminium, mixed in various ratios for diferent shades and vallejo paints for rest of the painted areas. I did not want to go too hard with the weathering this time. The WIP is here http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234965758-p-51d-f-51d-2x-airfix-sweet-arlene-finished/ Exhausts are just placeholders (cut from Hasegawa exhausts), ll be replaced by quickboosts during next week . Hope you like her and thanks for watching guys 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
