David Mooney Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Hello all, i hope everyone is well This is titled as a belated birthday wish as it was the P-51's 82nd birthday on the 26th October. This is my 1/32 Tamiya P-51D done as 'Glengary Guy' and this kit is just dream to build and after the tornado build....it was a great mojo rebuilder. This aircraft was piloted by Capt. Glenn Martin Webb. Glenn Martin Webb flew P-51D Mustang with the MC-Z lettering and was named 'Glengary Guy' using his name (Glenn), Gary (son), and Guy (son). The right side cowling read Jackie (Wife) This is the info I have found so far as I thought maybe he was born in Gleengary or something haha! (This is the info i found, but not 100% and would be very interested if others have some info) Paints were Tamiya and i was very impressed with the new lacquer paints in their range, the LP-11 (Silver) is tough as old boots and was a great base for the main colour and the chipping, the standard Tamiya paints were durable but could easily be chipped over the tougher lacquer paint. Anyway, over to you :-) scvrobeson, Hartmann352, Fanes and 26 others 28 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greif8 Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 That is one awesome build David! Your NMF and the weathering of it are top shelf. The engine and cockpit look fantastic as well. Ernest David Mooney 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granger Davis Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Absolutely stunning, beautiful modeling! Hoping to get mine done and hoping it will look half as good as what you’ve done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ringleheim Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 This looks great. I have really turned onto these sorts of P-51 paint schemes with the green wings but NMF sides...it's a really interesting look. I used to prefer the all metal appearance but this is cool. Well done!
