MODEL KIT(s) AND TECHNIQUES USED:
Used the stock F-51D kit (which, as an aside, is basically the perfect kit: I would strongly recommend this kit to anyone starting out in the hobby, or for a mental health ‘Tamiya Therapy’ build, as this one was) Out of the box, except modified the cockpit to make it a two-seater, as most contemporary civilian Mustangs are – removed the radios and mount, and scratch-build the insert; seat from spares. PE belts from washi tape.. Vallejo metallic acrylic for the painted aluminum finish. Draw Decal for the amazing Jelly Belly livery.
