cbaltrin 1943Mike Very, very nice!! The only Mustang I have in my stash is Revell's P-51D. It's still shrink wrapped so I may put in on eBay and eventually get either the Tamiya or Hasegawa stangs. Your Hase Mustang looks great! The revell (monogram) kit is a diamond in the rough. It's a great kut to build your modeling skills on. Shapes are near perfect and interior detail still not surpassed by tamiya or hasegawa offerings.

Thanks for everyone's kind responses to my 'Stang.

Nice work on your P-51. The Hasegawa kit has a lot going for it and with some extra work is easily better looking that the Tamiya kit. The clear parts are beautiful. They did fall down on how the did the guns IMO though. The spinner needs some reshaping and the Forward fuselage needs some work in order to match the spinner profile. Still a great kit though.
That is a great looking airplane. The finish is really well done. Nice weathering. I built that kit last year. It is a nice model to build.
Your comments and questions are always welcome.
Whoop! Nicely done!

jeaton01 Nicely weathered, Stephen. This winter I bought a Silhouette Cameo vinyl cutter and it is the bee's knees for masking patterns like that.

lawdog114Nice! Indeed I would have definitely cut Tamiya tape squares for the tail. Still looks great...

rooster513 Very very beautiful build Aggieman! Awesome paint job. What kit did you use to build your P40 checkertail? I'm looking to do one soon I hope.

Here is the fifth of my latest builds, Hasagawa's P-51D Mustang of the Checkertail Clan.
This was a good kit, not quite Tamiya quality but very good nevertheless. No construction issues or poor fit that I recall, and any errors are mine alone.
Paint is Alclad over a Stynlyrez black primer. Unlike the P-40F, this kit came with the checkerboard decal, so I put that to use. It looks good but up close I can see why I should have just painted the pattern. I cut the decals along the flap/rudder lines so there would not be some clear film covering those areas, but the result has been that the decals lifted some during the weathering process. Lesson learned - just paint!
