P-51 D Mustang
Posted by Anonymous on Sunday, June 1, 2003 2:52 PM
Hy Folks,

as D-Day is allready in sight, reinforcements for the 8th are needed:
another Stang finished, this time I built "Daddy´s Girl" 359th Fightergroup, 370th Fightersquadron, flown by Capt. Ray Wetmore, late 1944.


The kit is from Tamiya, Decals are Aeromaster, Paint is Alclad II and Gunze Acrylics, brushed with my new Iwata HP-SB (really like this one) A few parts of the Eduard Zoom Etching Parts Set is used in the cockpit area, along with some thin wire for the radio, the breaklines and seatbeld buckles Tongue [:P]











I really enjoyed building that bird! Next one´s allready in my hangar...Wink [;)]

  If you would listen to everybody about the inaccuracies, most of the kits on your shelf would not have been built Too Close For Guns, Switching To Finger

Jerry,

Very nice Unicorn Stang, my friend! Ausgezeichnet!! I really like this one, but then I've always liked "Daddy's Girl".

So, you like your Iwata? Great brush, ain't it?

Nicely done Jerry, I have always thought that Wetmore's P-51 was a great looking bird...plus he was one of very few pilots to shoot down a Me-163 rocket fighter in WWII. I built this aircraft in 1/72 (Tamiya also) about a year ago and love the paint scheme. Mine is still posted on Aircraftresourcecenter.com's site in the gallery section under P-51's.
