Stuart,

 

Not too shabby, sir! The razorback Merlin Mustangs always look nicer with a Malcolm hood and DFS! I found three very short but neat videos of Polish Mustang III's for your viewing pleasure.

Very nice Stuart one of these, less D-day stripes, was my return to modelling, I still have a great soft spot for them. I'd love to revisit one with the experience/knowledge I've picked up hanging out around here. The KP kit is high on my list. You set such a shining example for me. :)

Steve.

Very nice one Stuart. There are a lot of Mustangs about at the moment what with you, @RidgeRunner and me.

Cheers Terry, must be something to do with a Mustang GB... As for your 'ponies', get them posted.
