Beautiful model, Tolga

 

 

Lovely!  I like the unusual nature of the 1a with the cannon, and unusual spinner/prop.   Great job!

 

 

Beautiful build Tolga. Your build made me go and get myself one of these kits.

Thank you..

Lovely model Tolga.

 

I'd also like to do a P-51A and matching P-51B to the same standard at some point.

 

 

Looks great!  Love the look of the early Mustangs in RAF colors. Look great!

Thank you Chek, Thank you Dave..

My plan is to built at least 2 another of these in the future ( not in too long term)

Another RAF with desert scheme B-WU and a P-51A from Air commandos.

Very nice Tolga! :thumbsup:

 

Just asking, what colors did you use for the tires and exhaust tips?

 

:innocent: Tom

Thanks Tom

For the tires: base color is Tamiya German grey. And adding some mix of grey and brown 

Exhausts: Base coat is Alclad stell. Later adding some Red brown and Tamiya Buff color

I sure wish there were more of these early Mustangs left.

Sometimes It s possible to see them on Ebay but with high prices. I have 3 kits in my collection waiting to be built

By the way it seems that Special Hobby will release a serie of early Mustang.

 

I have no idea these are all new tools or repackaging of Hobbycraft s Mustang including some resin and PE stuff.

Especially Mustang 1 is exciting for me

Brilliant work Tolga :thumbsup:  I am getting ready to start the P-51A and this build has already been very useful since I am using the Vector cockpit (and the NorthStar Models wheel set), not sure how I will handle the exhaust stacks yet...
