The aircraft doesn’t have a ‘ buzz ‘ number for a start, the extra radio is fitted behind the headrest, and I think that the red mark just behind and above the exhaust is a fault on the film. I hope the weather holds for your vacation, although it’s a little too hot for us pale Britishers. John Hello John, I think that I nailed her !! Look at the 3rd mustang in the line, shape of teeth are different And there's a recuced Buzz number, the spinner is not the same indeed. But I think that I can go that way for Chappie's bird.

Biggles87 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I used that photo as reference for mine ( FF943, nearer camera ) and decide that it was painted metallic grey rather than NMF. Quite a few were painted but they got so dirty and worn that it looked like oxidise Aluminium anyway. There was also quite a lot of variation in the shark mouth patterns which is not surprising as they were probably hand painted individually without the use of stencils or templates.

John It's a kind of relief for me, Obviously, I'll cheat a bit, but I have all I need at hand now. Maybe will I alter the sharkmouth a bit after all. I'm not good enough at hairystick to do it free hand...😩 Next RFI will be Sharky one !! Almost done !! Sincerely. CC 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corsaircorp Posted September 19, 2020 Author Share Posted September 19, 2020 Hello Dears, Some news from the stable !! The Korean Mustang received some corrections... Most of these P-51 and the first ones to be deployed came from the WW II stocks in Japan and Philippines. So, I took the opportunity to say that this one is one of the VLR modified 'stang ! Since she carried and extra radio... Antenna is modified... here's the radio and the brackets... Aaaaand both together now !!! While I was on this beast, I added the ignitor tubes on the Ex fuel tanks... Ex fuel tankgenerally mean future giant BBQ..... Now Yeager's Mustang is nearing completion too And I did'nt resist comparisons... Here's a Mustang against a Skyraider... More to come soon Gents !! Have a great modelling week end...
