**** DONE: GB 64 - 1/48 F-51D Mustang - One Trick Pony

Good work so far!

Thanks again for all your comments

A couple of progress shots following the last update.

I've dropped the landing flaps and positioned the control surfaces which Airfix provide as separate parts. The front canopy was a bear to fit but again a bit of misalignment by me was likely the cause of that pain. I've put one of the spare rear canopies to act as a mask for the main painting. Anti glare panel and front canopy has been sprayed.

More progress soon.....

Cheers Greg

Thanks all . Currently I'm masking for the red trim in-between helping my son with his Beaufighter project which is progressing faster than the stang!
