Awesome build Iain! Now I need to try and build one myself. This and the PR versions are my favorite versions of the Spitfire. Cheers, Brady

Yes Brian, Thank you for the tip on the material. Brady

That's good to know! Thanks Kev! Brady

Thanks Max! I guess I was just kind of puzzled what the difference was between Oramask 810 and 810S I've heard of some people swear by one or the other.

Hi Bryan, Thanks for the information. I'd be interested inseeing those youtube videos. Thanks, Brady

OK thanks for the info Max. I really have only found an answer to one of my questions above by trying to comb through everyone else's posts though. It looks like everyone favors the Design studio upgrade package from Silhouette. Other than that I'm still looking for answers to my questions. Thanks, Brady

Hello everyone, I have a few questions before pulling the trigger on purchasing one of these. I believe I may get one of these from my wife for my birthday next month so I want to tell her everything I need/want to do this correctly and don't have to beg to spend money later. 1. What software do you guys use for the design of masks? I was thinking the Designer Studio package, but is there other stuff you guys use that's better than what's offered by Silhouette? 2. Where's the best place to get one from? Did you guys just get one from Silhouette America themselves or does someone else have a better deal? 3. Where's the best place to get the masking material from? 4. Do I want to use Oramask 810 or Oramask 810S material? What's the real difference? I appreciate any information you guys can share with me on making the best purchase and knowing I get what I need for my birthday the more details I can give my wife the better chance I have of getting what I need for this. Thanks in advance! Brady

Beautiful build Ian!

Thanks for the information Chuck but at this moment he's not making any custom masks for anyone else. Thanks, Brady

Hi Durangokid, I didn't see your project. Do you mind posting it again? Thanks, Brady

Hi Alek, Very nice stencil sets! I sent you a question in a PM the other day would you mind having a look at it. Thanks, Brady

I want a set of masks for the P-51D "Man O' War" and its Zebra stripes. DN models still is supposedly too busy to help me even after the guy's wife told me I had to wait for them to get home to Bulgaria from the U.S. so they had their Tamiya P-51 kit in their hands. Now that they are home they are still too busy three months later after waiting a month for them to go home before that. I just want to know is there someone who can help me here. Thanks, Brady

Put me in the drawing as a recipient too please Kevin. I'll look around and see what I have to donate and get back with you on that. Thanks, Brady

Does anyone know?

Hello everyone, I want to ask if anyone knows what kind of tanks are in use under Bardahl Special's wings here: http://www.airport-data.com/aircraft/photos/N2869D:1.html I don't have to worry about copyrights if I just link you to their pictures. I know by looking at these they are not typical 75 gallon or bigger 110 gallon tanks usually used on a P-51 in WWII because the filler caps are more on the side of the tank and closer to being under the leading edge of the wing and there's no horizontal seam. There's no horizontal seams around it so it's not a Corsair's drop tank and there's no vertical seam all the way around, so it's not a 165 gallon P-38 drop tank. There's two RCAF birds on this part of Martin's website with this type of drop tanks. They are "City of London" and "City of Winnipeg 9274". They're most of the way down the page. https://swissmustangs.ch/usaf-usang-rcaf Here's another bird with these tanks that was also a racer I believe. http://www.warbirdregistry.org/p51registry/p51-4474694.html I know that Bardahl Special did carry Skyraider drop tanks from an AD-4 Skyraider. I'm mainly trying to figure out if these were something made by Cavalier or meant for another warbird all together. I almost like these different drop tanks to use on my model to make Bardahl Special as a racer with a little bit more color by adding the red check like markings to the tanks. Thanks in advance, Brady
