Here is some progress pics on my 1/48 Tamiya P-51B i been working on for the last four weeks. This is my favorite 1/48 tamiya kit to build. I am using the mr color paints on the interior . The Kits Instrument panel i used the air scale dial decals and the waldron punch set. Then several drops of futute for the dial lense .
