Kit Review: 1/32 scale P-51D-5NA Mustang, Revell of Germany, kit number 03944, Part 1
This kit review will be in two parts. Sadly this one is no longer being produced at the moment. All of the molds have been purchased by a new company when the parent company of Revell went bankrupt a little while ago, so hopefully it [...]
1/48 Mustang I
Accurate Miniatures kit and Bringuier Aviation Products resin wing. The plane was operated by No.2 Squadron June 1942. Updates to the kit included Ultracast seat and exhausts, Squadron vacuform canopy, and Master gun barrels. I [...]
1/48 Accurate Miniatures P-51A
Latest off the bench is this old AM P-51A with some after market items. Really decent kit that one can assemble with not a lot of issues. Decent cockpit detail and over all shape is good, the only draw back is a rather thick canopy that [...]

1/32 Scale RB 51 ‘Red Baron’ Fisher Models
Here is a progress report on my RB 51 Mustang,
This kit fought me the whole way, everything just went wrong. I painted this kit twice, yip, TWICE. The paint was flaking and not sticking to the resin, so when I removed the masking tape, the [...]
Airfix P-51D 1/48
First completion of 2019. Actually its been in process for awhile. The Airfix kit is well done with no flaws to mention. Airfix's color coded assembly instructions came in handy in a few steps though. I added an Eduard P-51D interior [...]
New kit news: Eduard to release a new-tool 1/48 P-51D Mustang in 2019
So it's confirmed. With the proverbial Tamiya shake-and-bake kit still to be considered a benchmark in kit engineering, challenged by recent new releases by Meng and Airfix... Eduard will be bringing us another 1/48 scale kit of the [...]

My SAAF No2 Sqn 'Flying Cheetahs' from when they flew in the Korean war.
The kit used was a 1/48 Tamiya F-51D Mustang (Korean war version).
It is a replica of 'Clink Clinks'. The yellow underwing tanks are the napalm tanks used along with [...]
Tamiya 1/48 F-6D “Nose Art Group Build”
