An (not at all crap...ish) Airfix P-51D

Thanks Gents - it's pretty much finished now.

The only thing I'm debating is whether or not I matt/flat coat it - I knida like it glossy.

Agree great paint work and decals.

Uh...well, it is your build. Glossy is nice. On the other hand dull coat it more to period, yes, but I like it shiny. But they were not shiny, I know. But...and on and on.

How about a satin coat? Suggests a waxed look like some ground crews did to get just a bit more speed advantage.

Satin would look nice...

[Medicman71]

I say satin as well.

[midnightprowler]

Beautiful.

[Stuart]

Thanks for the input Gents - I did think Satin as well actually. So I've given it a coat of one of my matt coats as if comes out a bit satinish... (is that a word?)

I'm pretty much finished this kit now, just a few odds and sods to do - I had hoped I'd get it done today but alas not.

One annoying thing is that I've lost the rear view mirror to the carpet monster - I guess 2020 has had it's last bit of fun.

You have produced a fantastic finish on this model, my man. She’s a beauty and once again, you’ve leveled up. You keep getting after it because yep, you’re achieving your goal and then some. Good show, buddy!

[Stikpusher]

Looking real good Stuart!
