Looks nice, any comments on the build?

thanks, just looking at the massive instructions I was nervous. But its a Tamiya kit. Just follow the instructions and you have a good model. The kit decals are very nice.

I used up the last bit of Model Master ADC Gray I had on hand and gave it a gloss coat.  I painted over a black base trying to give some emphasis to the panel lines.

Trying something different.

3 P-51s in flying formation.  1 Accurate Miniatures P-51B, and 2 Hasegawa P-51Ds.  I kind of like building planes wheels up.

IMG_2398.thumb.JPG.025fe7c4f64a61aba12e7809eab14e3e.JPG

 

Accurate Miniatures P-51B built as SUZY-G, 375TH FS.  Built out of the box except for putting the wheels up, adding a pilot and the Aeromaster decals

IMG_2400.thumb.JPG.942710ce06e1799d2ae53abc5b2184f0.JPG

Hasegawa P-51D built as Sky Bouncer. Again, built out of the box like the previous plane with the decals from the same Aeromaster sheet.  Wasn't paying enough attention when I painted this one.  Wings should have been all OD! 🙄

Hasegawa P-51D built as Detroit Miss.  Out of the boxs like the previous kits but with Kagero decals

Comin at you!  Doing some research, it ends up that all 3 of these planes crashed with the pilots surviving but the planes were written off.
