ICM 1/48th Scale P-51B
Hi All!
One may hazard a guess from the Mig-3 and Yak-9 I built from ICM, that all of their kits are, well (I'll be nice) not up to modern standards. That is not true. ICM's twin-stage Merlin Spitfire series was the best on the market [...]
P-51D Mustang – Tamiya 1/32
Here is my finally completed Tamiya P-51D. It represents the aircraft of Captain Henry W. Brown, leading ace of the 354th Fighter Squadron, 355th Fighter Group and its second most decorated pilot. (This is photograph 12694 from the [...]
Accurate Miniatures, 1:48 Scale, North American P-51C, "Mustang"
Pulling this one from the "Way Back Machine" for "Throw Back Thursday".
Sans Tennessee Tuxedo and Chumley, of course...
Anyway, I was in my 'Laboratory' organizing storage when I happened to see this old kit and [...]
North American P-51B Mustang, 1/48, Tamiya TAM61042
Received this amazing kit as a Christmas present from my good friend Spiros @fiveten. Together we started a groupbuild of a P51 and A36 which ended up in a group with lots of enthusiastic members taking part as well. A lot of techniques [...]
MARY NELL – Uncle Harold’s Checkertail P-51 D Mustang
When I was growing up, my Uncle Harold Taylor was a really big deal to the younger cousins. Not just because he'd been a fighter pilot in World War II and a POW, but because his P-51D Mustang - named for our mother's cousin our Aunt Mary [...]
ICM 1/48 P-51 Mustang: Nightmare NMF Project
This project took the joy out of model building which isn't good for my 6th build. The ICM kit was subpar by every standard. The instructions didn't include the paint scheme or decal layout for the box art version which is what I built. [...]
1:48 Eduard P-51 Mustang & FW-190 Dogfight Diorama
Prior to the whole pandemic kerfuffle I had an idea to build a dogfight diorama. I purchase the two Eduard Profi-PACK kits back in 2020 and promptly put them on the shelf until the time was right. After a little research I knew the Mustang [...]
1/48 Airfix P-51K-5 Janet/Elva May
Airfix Mustangs are fabulous- perhaps just one small step below Eduard when it comes to surface detail but certainly less fussy to build. I originally intended to build this as "Louisiana Heatwave" but accidently installed the [...]
A Very Long Range Mustang from Iwo Jima – Eduard 1/48 P-51D-20
The model originally came from Eduard's ’Chattanooga Choo Choo’ kit, but unfortunately I received it with a partly cut-off decal sheet, the german symbols were missing from the victory marks. So rather I decided to build it using one [...]
Eduard 1/48 P-51D-5 Mustang "Nooky Booky II"
2nd kit of 2023- first time building an Eduard kit.
Overall it was a mixed experience, detail was amazing inside and out but definitely a level of "fiddliness" that was frustrating.
Some self inflicted wounds along the way as [...]
