N.A. P51D Mustang. 357th F.G.


Recommended Posts

The second kit in line is another ICM Mustang, built strictly OOB, but using some aftermarkets decals I had (can't remember the Company). Painted with Gunze Sangyo "acrylics", and some minor weathering done with pastel chalks...Needless to say, any comment will be welcome...

Very neat and proper Mustang! Also, good work indicating the panel joints on top of the white decals – makes them look painted on and not 'glued on top'.

 

The prop blades look a bit strange, as if the prop was intended to turn anti-clockwise as seen from the cockpit. The Merlin turned clockwise viewed from the pilot…

 

Nice job overall!

 

Kind regards,

you're right about the propeller......I think it was my mistake, I cut off the locatin pins from the base of the blabes, and missed the proper angle when it came to assemble them onto the hub........I'll correct it this very evening....I can't understand the idea of separate propeller blades...not good at al for a shoddy modelller as me...

thank you very much for your advice....!!!

cheers
