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!

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.

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
