Popular Post Umut Can Posted December 17, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 17, 2018 (edited) Instagram : Jäger.Scale.Models Hello, Greetings from Istanbul to everyone Hasegawa released this beautiful kit in 2011 and I liked it very much. The quality of the plastic parts are very nice. But I have made a great effort for canopy. It’s very sensitive and simple. I just used Eduard's cockpit pe set (FE268). Naturally I started with the cockpit before installation. After that I finished the body. I used Ak Xtream metal aluminum (AK749) color as metal color. Normally I would put a glossy black underneath metallic colors, but I did a trial without primer in this paint, and the result was great, it dried more quickly, became brighter. In the final stages, varnish and washing was done and the finishing touches were completed. I'm sorry my English is bad 🤕 Dyeing phase Final Photos Edited May 28, 2019 by Umut Can 78 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldy Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Do not worry about your English - your modelling speaks very well! A really nice result Indeed!. I always felt that the Hasegawa 1/48 Mustang was better than the Tamiya one - fewer problems to sort out like the canopy (the Tamiya one in 2 parts being very difficult to assemble) and the propeller blades are much better in the Hasegawa kit. Of course there are new kids on the block nowadays (Airfix and Meng to name 2) but I doubt that many will look much better than this. Well done.

Randy Lutz Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Beautiful model. If it is not too late I suggest you switch your main landing gear doors, as they are on the wrong legs. Aside from that, nicely done. Cheers Randy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
