Another P-51 engine! Sweet!

Well, the polycap that is supposed to link/sync the left and right elevators fell out during the process of joining the fuselage halves. So I had to saw out the little housing that was supposed to hold the polycap in place and set it manually. Looks like I have one "unforced error" so far...

That Merlin is looking great. Looks like it came with the kit? Must be a lot easier than old resin, lol

SOB all the way!!!

Can't believe I'm just now seeing this DM. Looking great!

Desert Marlin
Thanks KyMustang! This build is truly fun!!!!

It's close to time to add the canopy and mask for paint. Lots of weathering yet to go. And the gun bays are looking a bit bland. Needs some additional paint and wiring.

Desert Marlin
Time to close up the cockpit and prep for paint. Going to be one of those traditional natural metal schemes with lots of wear and tear...

3 May, 05:06

KyMustang
The fit on that kit looks amazing.

3 May, 13:10

Rando
Yep agreed Ky, my next P-51 will definitely be a Tamiya. How did detailing the gun bays go Marlin?

3 May, 14:37

Desert Marlin
Still working on them. The fit has had only one issue that was even close to being worth mentioning. The right wing gun port on the leading edge did not fit perfectly. So I have had to do a little filling on the undersurface. The underwing scoop was almost an issue but seems to have settled into place. WARNING: one must fit the AILERONS BEFORE THE FLAPS. Otherwise the photo etched hinge does not get locked into place by the steel shaft from the outboard end of the flap. Missed this so it was unforced error #2...

3 May, 20:53

Desert Marlin
Simply stated, the fit is perfect.

3 May, 20:54

Desert Marlin
Okay, after looking at some of the real aircraft, I am not sure there is any detail needed except to weather the bay and guns. I was expecting some electrical or other pipes/wiring, but alas, there does not appear to be any...

I'm back! So the masks provided are intended to be applied to the outside surface. However, it's really hard to mask the interior surface, so I cut the masks and applied them to the inside of the glass and then used Scotch tape for the outside. Leaving the interior a little "over masked, the black primer added to the outside with the flat black interior will create a nice effect overall.

Rando
Glad you're back and all is ok! Excited to see how this one turns out

Me too!

Looking good, following. 👍

Back at it! Prop is done, not yet weathered. Needs some scuffing along the leading edges.

Slow. One panel at a time...

nice looking metal!

More metal...

All the metal is on!

4 July, 02:11

Rando
Sweet variation. What metals do you use Marlin? I have NMF builds in my future

4 July, 03:55

KyMustang
Looks excellent!

I'm using Alclad and Metalizer. Sadly, my collection of Metalizer is shrinking. My choice for masking tape is 3M PostIt Notes. They work really well on the soft surface of Alclad Primers and Paints. Looking to seal it up next and start the process of marking/weathering.

4 July, 17:04

John
I love the finish of Metalizer but hoo boy is it fragile. I hear you on supply. I'm all out of aluminum; stainless steel and jet exhaust are all that's left. 🙁

Your IDF Mustang is looking great, however!

4 July, 18:02

Desert Marlin
Thanks! The PostIt Notes really do work!

5 July, 01:10

Going to steal your post it notes trick for my next metallic project. Even i]with Xtreme Netal paints, I still have to wait a couple of days after I seal it with gloss - thanks Marlin!

5 July, 15:40

Desert Marlin
Aye! Please do!!!
