B1CrewChief Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 Here is my finished project. Tamiya 1:32 P-51D in the markings of Daddy's Girl This was an amazing kit to build and i have to say my best build yet. Hope you all enjoy. Some description of what i used. I replaced the kit instrument panel with a Eduard Look one. Also used HGW fabric seat belts and resin dingy. Painted with K kolors Aluminum, Tamiya mix for the bright green nose and MRP for everything else.

MikeC Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 That's really good. Nice to see one from this unit, which one doesn't see modelled very often. Martinnfb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R Palimaka Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 Excellent job!!! Nice natural metal finish and weathering, and especially a great choice of markings. I agree, great to see the colours of a different 8thAF fighter group. Thanks for sharing that! Richard Martinnfb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes i realized that when i found it really hard to find decals for this it. but ever since i saw a picture of this units aircraft they always struck me as cool and different with the green nose.
