For my next build I'll be tackling Revell's 1/48 P-51B. I'll be doing the markings of "Pappy's Answer" of the 364th FS, 357th FG.

So far I've finished up the cockpit. A little basic, but still detailed enough for me. It's all OOB except for some PE belts.

Thanks guys!

So I got the fuselage together:

Next up is the wings. The ports for the machine guns are just holes so I figure I need to put something in there. At first I thought I could use some sprue and drill some holes in the ends, but the sprues were too thick. Then I remembered I had some spare flash supressors from a Monogram P-38.

Looks good enough to me

Very nice - That's coming along superbly! Your cockpit looks great.

I have a Tamiya P-51B that I'm planning on building as Ding Hao!
