cobraman Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Just finished . Had some issues but got it done . Not the best example of the finished kit . I did make some errors . I chose to do it with wheels up . Less work true but I think the plane looks best when flying . All Tamiya paints and I tried to follow the color call outs the best I could . I did omit some of the tiny decals of which there were many . Now where to put it ! This will be my last airplane . Thanks for looking . 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happy grumpy Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Turned out really good. I remember when I was doing almost only airplanes, the mustang was one of my favorite subjects along with the Corsair. Great color scheme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoopdog Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 Great job on one awesome aircraft. I’ve recently picked up four WW2 birds to add to my vehicle stash. I going for all 1/48 scale in my collection for space saving. Your build has given me inspiration to get started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobraman Posted May 8, 2023 Author Share Posted May 8, 2023 Yes Bruce, it is Cobra time ! I have not had a lot of time lately to work on it much but try to here and there. Not sure if you read my post of the Cobra and the terrible chrome on the side pipes. I have decided to strip them and paint them white. I must say given the cost of the kit I was disappointed to say the least but we modelers have to deal with problems all the time so I will march forward. Slowly but forward !

TooOld Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 Well done Ray , that's one sharp looking Mustang ! Never would have known it was missing decals if you hadn't said anything . I always wanted to give this kit a try but haven't because I have no space for it ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted May 29, 2023 Author Share Posted May 29, 2023 Thanks Bob. I was able to get in one of my cabinets as long as it was on the stand so cars could still be underneath . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
