I just received this and it is absolutely beautiful. The exterior is just about as perfect as can be from the painting and markings to nice touches like the exhaust staining and guns. Unexpected was the "office" with improvements from the radio to a proper gun sight!
Very nicely done all around!!

Chunks,
Glad to see you are happy with the model.
I personally have a Skyworks P-51C Lee Archer in my collection and it is great. Jack does a great job. Now I need a Fw-190A.....

I'll try to post some photos with this guy hanging around with the rest of the fleet. Right now I'm looking around for a longer USP cable and extension cord for my MFD, the only thing I have with a slot for the camera ferndocker.

Wow, that is a beautiful Mustang. Sure wish he would make a P-39, how cool would that be?

A Skyworks P-39 would bit very bitter sweet for me. It would undoubtedly be epic, but I wouldn't be able to afford one.

That's a stunning collection. A few custom birds in there.
How does one defeat the dust monster?
Take them down individually and use compressed air outside of course?
I have that problem.

That is by far my all time favorite Mustang scheme. The paint job is outstanding, man Jack can sling some paint.

Wow,
very cool paintscheme and well-executed paintjob.
BTW, is the background between the tail numbers supposed to stand out from the rest of the OD tail like that? I've seen other representations of the Shangri La and the yellow numbers seemed to be on an OD background (like BBI's Old Crow)

Whoa.... Hold on. "Can't help Airacobra just yet"??????
You can't do stuff like that to me, I nearly fell straight out of my chair. I am officially starting a fund based on those words. Even if you never get around to a P-39 I should have enough saved up for that Tony, or Hurricane, or Spitfire, or...... Well, you get the idea. By the way, that P-40 looks awesome. Was it made with your kit designed for the 21st P-40?
