P-51 rivets
Posted by Noah on Wednesday, January 30, 2019 3:09 PM

Quick question, does anyone know where I can get a rivet layout sheet for my model p-51 mustang.  I've looked and all I can find is on for the right wing, not the whole body.  

Thanks for your help.

I have no idea. You could try asking the people in the aircraft section of the forum. They know their stuff.

But do they have the pattern layout?

Don't be shocked SILVER Smile finescale did help me.  Some people down in the aircraft section of finescale gave me some layout sheets.  Turns out though most p-51 mustangs had their rivets sanded down, so many of them aren't visible.  I'm instead going just going to add some of the bigger more visible screw wholes.

Don't forget that if you are building a NMF version, the center section of the P-51 main wings are painted an aluminum color.
