TRUMPETER P 51 D scale 1/24


Model build by Patrick SPITAELS

Here are the first steps of the building...it's a big beast and lots of people are talking about it ! My first impressions....cockpit details were a bit poor and undersized ! I've got to rebuild all inside and enlarge the seat...which looks like having 1/32nd scale !i'ba added a plasticard sheet for the floor and scribe it to give the wood look....instruments were made in plasticard too, and punched. Now as the fuselage is closed; the second problem is the noze....engine is undersized and too low in the engine mount ? Nose looks to have a problem too, but still didn't find it ! I'm starting to clean the fuselage and after make the wings !
