P-51D Mustang, Airfix 1/48


Recommended Posts

This is the P-51D Mustang by Airfix in 48 scale. It was a joy to build this kit. I used Vallejo acrylics (mainly olive drab and neutral grey). The decals came from SuperScale decals (no48-1065). There is a mistake in the decal sheet instructions, since they make 'ol flak joe' walk towards the tail of the aircraft. I had my doubts if that could be corect. Some searching on the internet showed that in fact he was walking in the direction of flight. Hope you like the Mustang.

Almost grabbed this kit off the shelf yesterday, itching to build it (grabbed the PR XIX instead). 

 

Love the scheme. 

 

Cheers

Hi Collin, must say that the newer Airfix kits are wonderful. Good luck with the Spit, curious for the result!

Excellent!!!!!  It`s rare to see a Delta version dressed in Olive Drab / Neutral Gray scheme over the customary silver / natural metal.  All the accolades for your Mustang are well deserved my friend!!!! :goodjob:
