1/48 P-51 D FINISHED- (Improving the Tamiya kit tutorial)

Excellent work on this one. Since you got impatient and had decal difficulties, I know that you are human and can make (tiny) mistakes! There’s hope for me yet.

I really like what you’ve done to spruce the Tamiya bird up. Have you ever thought of contacting FSM to write a “How To” article for something like this? You could probably have an article a month for a year!

Thanks Max. I’m very human and average modeler at best. Its all about smoke and mirrors. I’ve thought about an FSM article. Maybe something small, but my work pales in comparison to those master modelers in there. .

That looks fantastic! You are always able to get such a realistic finish to your models, just the right amount of weathering. [Y]

Thanks Mike.

Joe,

Great build and tutorial. Really like the way that you approach assembling and detailing the cockpit. One question, which model Dremel tool are you using. I had one with a rechargable battery that stopped working years ago and am looking to replace it with a good one.

Glad that I found this build. Thanks again for sharing.

Thanks Matt. It’s the cordless Dremel Model 7700. I got it at Wal Mart for like 40 bones…works great!
