Two shiny "little friends": here comes the second one.
I did chose to build a RAF Mustang Mk. III, the decals have been taken from the kit.
I hope you like the outcome and the pictures!

Very nice Roland!
Well done.
Nice! Looks great with the Malcolm hood.
Also a dandy. I’ll bet they look great side-by-side.
Both builds are great. I like the subtleness of the weathered metal finish.
Great presentation, sir...love it.
just beautiful
Dear mates, thank you for these kind comments!

Very nice clean looking builds ( Two shiny “little friends”: here is the first one. ) Roland.
Very nice work here Roland.
One thing for future reference for all who build this kit, a little-known fact I only became aware of a year ago or so after "doing it incorrectly" for 25 years since this kit came out: the Malcolm Hood is just clear plastic, no framing. Once you know it, it's easy to see in close-up photos, but also easily mistaken with light reflecting on it in the photo.
Thank you mates for these friendly remarks!
Tom, that is a very informative hint you gave on the Malcolm hood! I have found confirmative and clarifying pictures of the real thing in the net- I will take account of that on my recent build of Trumpeters Mustang Mk.III

Well done Roland. Makes a great stablemate to your P-51B.
That's another beauty - both those Mustangs are very eye-catching! Well done.
Thank you for both comments and kind words!
Looks quite spiffy in that livery, beautiful indeed.
Thank you Bill for your comment!
@rosachsenhofer great metal finish! And polish accent 🙂
