A stellar performance in the modeling world Mate. This is the very Mustang I wanna build.

This turned out great.  I like the inclusion of a pilot.  I still don't have the courage to paint a figure.  Beautiful build. 

Cheers, Mark

Great work Fred, well done.

Really like the finish, i have a 1/48 P51 with many extras waiting for this treatment, maybe your build can motivate me.

Calling it done , All done in Alclad 2 The Original Paint , changed the silver ammo panels to ALC102 DurAluminium as the silver was too much :)

Great job masking, and neat look on the different NM on the ammo access doors (though I'll agree toning it down a little was a good idea).

Looking real good Mate. I've been wanting to try that Alclad Mil spec paint.

A tip form your Uncle Jay;  if the paper clamps ping off when their too close to the wing edge, try slipping a piece of clear tubing over the  holding surface of the clamp. Then you can clamp right on the edge with out them slipping off. I got some from a fish store , cut to length and simply slit each piece along the center and slip over the edge of the clamp.

Nice work Fred, she is coming along splendidly, well done. I didn't know that Alclad made a coloured range of paint, I always thought they just did metal effects and miscellaneous candy's and the like.

Any way, great work.

 

 

 

 

thanks mate , they brought out the mil-spec range not long ago mate and the other week added 4 new colours to the range think theres like 42 colours at the moment i can go in my cave and count them if you want i have them all lol

 

 

It's all good, I prefer Mr. Paint currently but thank you for the offer.

Looking awsome!  Can't wait to see more.

OOOH-RAH ! ! Ridleusmc . 
   Yessir Marine .   I have been using these clamps and the little and medium plastic ones for years .You get a good leading - trailing edge without gaps that way . It's also great for ships with external keels .

Yes, I'm digging the interior.  I also like the paper-holder "clamps" that you use to hold the wings together.  I use bar clamps and small c-clamps, but I think your method may be a little more space efficient.
