Phil Reeder Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) My last build took 4 years on and off,this has taken me 4 Days !!It`s the new Airfix Mustang in 72nd,finished in the colours of the 4th FG from the Xtradecal sheet no72-099.It goes without saying the kit is well up to Airfixs latest high standard.What a pleasent change it has been building it.The natural metal finish is airbrushed Citadel paints Mithril silver over a tamiya lt grey undercoat,I`m chuffed with the result.

mick b Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Lovely model Phil, the tablecloth base isnt as good as your usual sea scapes though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strangeways Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Looks very nice Phil. I've read a couple of comments elsewhere about overdone panel lines but that doesn't appear to be the case at all, looking at yours. What did you thin the Citadel paints with, in order to airbrush them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
