1/48 Tamiya P51D Build (with Aires/Eduard Detail)

In general I think the tarp looks good. :+1:

As you mentioned it’s post painting so pre painting on the next one would have probably helped to get it tighter to the fuselage.

The d-day strips look great.

Hi Roly,

You did a good job on this one. The white stars look a bit too solid though, so you might consider weathering them a little to break that up. That tarp looks almost too real, that’s a complement.

Can’t wait for the Mossy!

H.G.

Thanks for the compliments.

However, as stupid as this sounds, i wasn’t quite sure how to do this - so if you have a method you use and trust, i’d be only too glad to learn of it.

Sure thing. Do you have any light grey oils or a tamiya weathering master B?

No, not the oils - i did dabble with the master b some years ago and didn’t get on with it. I suppose I could use pigments, which i normally use on AFVs?

PM and I’ll call and walk you through it. Super simple and makes a world of difference.

That’s awesome! Great build!
