I know, I should finish my Focke-Wulfs but this doesn’t seem to happen and it is better that I build a Mustang than nothing, isn’t it? I picked up the new Airfix 1/72 Mustang last Friday and I intend to build it as a Swedish J 26. ”Blue N” was one of a pair of D-Mustangs that were painted in traditional Swedish green and grey as an experiment, the rest of them (150+) remained in natural metal.
According to legend, ”Blue N” was among the fastest Mustangs in the Air Force. The experimental paint scheme weathered badly and the aircraft soon got a quite beat-up appearance. Its regular pilot carefully kept it that way so that higher rank pilots should keep their hands off it!
Boxart: one marking alternative from ”Tuskegee Airmen”.
Plastic is very nice without being exceptional. This is not Hasegawa or Tamiya but it is still good and I am quite content with that!
A bit of glueing and fitting: parts fit well! There are two sets of flaps, one up and one down – and both of them fit very well! Something Hasegawa never has managed…
After a bit of painting…
:-H
