Here are some photos
of my P-51B Mustang from the Tamiya kit in 1/48 scale. I used a resin seat
from Aires and decals from Eagle Strike. The metal finish was made with
model master master paints.

The model depicts
the aircraft of Robert "punchy" Powell junior, lieutenant of the
328th fighter squadron, 352nd fighter group, based in Bodney, England in June
1944. Nicknamed the "Bluenosed Bastards of Bodney" due to the
distinctive all blue noses of its P-51,the 352nd fighter group was one of the
most succesful fighter groups in the Eighth Air Force. Major Preddy, the ranking
P-51 ace of WW2, belong to the 352nd fighter group.
