Nose Art Group Build – North American P-51D Mustang, Monogram 1/48
Here's my first model for the Nose Art Group Build, the venerable and somewhat ill-fitting Monogram P-51D. The kit was intended to honor my five year old grandson, who shares his name with John Meyer's famous Mustang "Petie". [...]
Battle of Kasserine Pass G.B. – 1/48 North American F-6A Mustang.
This is the Accurate Miniatures 1/48 scale kit. I picked up a Model Alliance decal set for RAF and Commonwealth fighters in the Med several years ago and wanted to build this particular aircraft first. The Kasserine Group Build gave me [...]
Heller P-51D

1:32 Zoukei-Mura P-51D Mustang
This was my first build after a 25 year break from models so I figured start with the Cadillac of war birds. I picked the Zoukei-Mura over the Tamiya kit based purely on price. And I must say, this is a really nice kit. If you want to [...]
P-51K Mustang Mk.IVa, 3 Squadron RAAF, Italy, 1944/45.
This was originally intended to be the Tamiya 1/32 kit, but I got distracted when I just opened it's 1/48 cousin & at the same time came across a wealth of reference material for this squadron on the internet. Pretty much [...]
