Okay guys, here is my latest Mustang repaint. This is the first one I've done any noticeable weathering to. I also added the HVAR rockets under the wing and a yellow napalm tank. I put the Sabre pilot in since he is more period correct than the WW2 Mustang pilot. The Mustang was used hard for the ground attack role in Korea so I tried to make the Mustang look tired and beat up with a sludge wash and alot of paint chipping. I also threw in a few pics at the end with my F4U-4 Corsair Korean War Custom that I did a while back. Enjoy the pics.
