Wulf Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 Finished this Tam 1/48 51D today. I've been home with a bladder AND prostate infection (turning 40 is starting to suck) so I've had the time. I used Eduards PE cockpit set, a resin seat, resin wheels, piped the drop tanks and used hypo tubing for the guns. I tried Hawkeyes Talon Metallic paints for the first time. Took some time to get used to them but learned for next time. Also used the polish powders for a little extra shine. Comments welcomed...

ghodges Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 SWEET 'Stang! Your NMF looks perfectly fine to me, so I can't imagine what trouble you had that you mention. Looks very crisp and sharp! Thanks for posting! GIL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
