North American P-51B Mustang

Tamiya's 1/48 scale P-51B Mustang is available online from Squadron

This is the 1/48 Tamiya P-51B Mustang built straight from the box with the addition of Eagle Strike decals IP4808.

The invasion stripes were masked and airbrushed with Testor's Model Master enamels. The Aluminium finish is Model Master Buffing Aluminium Plate, dry brushed and buffed.

The blue nose is a mix of 4 parts #2730 Chrysler Engine Blue and 1 part #1772 Blue Angel Blue as researched by "Sam Sox". "The West by Gawd Virginian" was the second mount of Lt. Robert H "Punchy" Powell, of the 328th FS 352nd FG The Blue Nosed Basterd of Bodney.
