Bigasshammm Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Hey all. I don't post on here hardly ever but thought I'd share this one. Not sure if any have been build on here yet? I think someone was doing one in a GB I saw but not sure if it's finished. Nice kit. A shame it will always be compared to the Tamiya but even still it has it's benefits. I built this strictly oob with the only addition being Kagero's Pacific Mustang decals. I used the kit stencils though. Full slideshow can be seen here. http://s1109.photobucket.com/albums/h423/bigasshammm/models%2012/ZM%20P-51D/?albumview=slideshow I was planning on taking it to the Cleveland Model Show Nov 4th but right after I took these pics I dropped it and broke the landing gear. Not sure if it will be repaired in time or properly. Sickens me. Hope you enjoy. K barkhorn and DesertRat 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick32 Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Excellent, that looks awesome!! And its the first one i have seen completed. Can i ask, how was it to build? I was tempted to get one, but ended up with the Tamiya kit. But thats not to say i wouldnt add one to my collection... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigasshammm Posted October 7, 2012 Author Share Posted October 7, 2012 (edited) Thanks guys. The kit was really nice actually. There's a lot to get to fit but if done correctly the fit is perfect. In a masters hands this would be an exceptional kit. Not as good as the Tamiya but almost on par. And it gives you a couple different options since it has the wing spars and such. I've got a wip thread on ARC if you want to see build pictures. Edited October 7, 2012 by Bigasshammm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigasshammm Posted October 31, 2012 Author Share Posted October 31, 2012 Wow, first ZM's P-51 with our decals. Nicely done, congratulations and thank you for using our stuff! No problem the decals are absolutely fantastic. I wanted something that still had the noseart on he aircraft with the cowlings off so these were perfect. Highly recommended to anyone looking for decals. Ill be using the other noseart when I eventually get a Tamiya P-51. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
