That looks a superb job Phil can I ask how much time you have in that build? and how long on average it would take to complete a build like that?

cheers bud

hi m8 its took a couple of weeks on and off, its a hanger 9 kit which i have kit bashed i like to put my own mark on these type of kits, the original had douglas bader markings and was glossy looked wrong. I like my planes to look like they,ve been in the wars lol. this one is based on a plane which was based at catterick i,d like to think the real one flew over the field out to hunt over the coast. cheers m8s

youve put all that effort into building a scale replica of a once feared monster of the british skies and you are undecided if its worth it. 2 words m8 FIT IT !!!

it would finish it off just nicely i reckon, unless of course the price far out ways the benefits.

Looked at the website, thems BIG warbirds! too big for me.

OMG! A Tuskegee P51B in the right colours. Jeez I've wanted one of them for years!!! The only 'colored' fighter outfit in WW2, had some of the finest pilots of WW2 in their ranks, hard as nails black lads-with a point to prove.
