Sturmovik Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 A true classic, Tamiya's 1:48 Mustang B. I used the kit decals and sunk them into hot water, so they could soften up and sink into the panel lines. Painted with Revell acrylics, the olive drab is Revell 66 Olive Grey. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72modeler Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Sturmovik, Nice model of Gentile's famous and oft-photographed P-51B. I have attached a link to his story as well as photos of her last flight- a shame he put her in the dirt, as she might have possibly gone stateside for a war bond tour and might have ended up being preserved. A sad end to a Mustang and a sad end after the war to the life of a gifted fighter pilot. Your model is a fitting tribute.
