F-6D/K N5-X Eduard 111 TRS 68 TRG 12 AF

It landed to me as a Xtmas Gift!!

All build is out of the box. The cockpit is very nice and fits very good.

Base for bare alum i used MIG 194 Matt Aluminum

For antiglare nose-zone used Tamiya XF58 Olive Green
For some panels to distinguish used MIG Steel 191 and Valejo Silver 7724

Red "nose" Tamiya XF7 Flat Reg

Clear cote of Alclad II Klear Kote Gloss ALC310-60 was used. NB!!! For those who will use it for the first time - give enough time to dry, as it stay long quite tacky.

The prototype. I wonder what does it mean that white droplet just bellow windscreen! any ideas?

it was my first experience with "new type" Eduard decals. They are like "two layers" and the top layer went off partly damaging the decal. Well it gave me an idea that I have to depict quite battered Mustang. On later stages the red strips have been slightly corrected and blended.

It got some panel wash as well overall dark wash. With same Alu/Silver colors the use and wear were created.

Resting among panzer tracks 🙂

Canopy in place. Quite clear peace.

Approaching the finish.

Sveikinu, tikrai gerai atrodo. Apdaužytas ir purvinas, kas gali būti gražiau! Tikrai nenuobodžiai atrodo. Pavyko tikrai gerai, puikus mustangas!

Greetings from Lithuania! Congratulations, the plane looks really cool! Battered and dirty mechanical things are always more beautiful than new. I have in mind models, not swiss watches and Porsche 🙂. Really nice Mustang!
