A Brace of Brit Mustangs


Recommended Posts

Bit of a place holder as I am at the painting stage of a Soviet PE-2 in the WW2 twins GB and am just starting to build an EE Lightning in the Baby Boomers GB.

I have never made a Mustang before, but it is probably my favourite WW2 US fighter, although I do have a bit of a thing for the Hellcat.......

 

Will hopefully make a start on these in the next couple of weeks.

Good morning George 

 Welcome aboard and see you soon for the start of your builds , I think that it would be better if you could open 2 separate build threads ..

 

Have fun with your build 

Best regards

Getting close to making a start on these two, so here are some sprue shoots.

 

The Airfix offering:

The canopy parts look a bit misty, so will benefit from a dunk in some Gauzy agent.

And the Arma offering:

Although both are moulded in grey, fortunately there is a bit of a difference in the shade, so hopefully I won’t get muddled up with the parts.

 

Not sure which scheme to choose on the Arma kit. Currently thinking i might do both versions with Teeth, tbc.
