One for Chuck
Eduard P-51D with Barracuda Studios decals to do my childhood hero's airplane.
There's a WIP thread in the WIP Group. There will be a review at Modeling Madness Thusday, republished here with more photos than there.

Wow Tom! I was just about to revisit your WIP and you've already completed it in record time!
A fitting tribute to Chuck and a damn good job on Glamorous Glenn to boot! Thanks!
Just for show and tell, I have attached a photo of my own Yeager shrine I've had for 25 years in my office.

Awesome. Chucks’ ride per excellence.
A Wild horses’ tribute for a True Pilot.

Man that was fast! Nice work, Tom.

@j-healy: It helps to have done a couple of the kits - practice makes it easier as they say. They also say that makes "perfect," but not in the world of modeling.

Nice one Tom. If I could build that fast I would have some chance of making every kit in my stash.

Thank you for honoring one my my heroes Tom.

I tried to hit the 'Like' button about 10 times for this post Tom.
Great looking build and a great tribute to Chuck Yeager.

Looks great! I always liked that scheme - just the right colors, and enough of color.
