P-51 Mustang WIP

I love anything bluenosed! ..Great work..as BLOWHARD says....really nice metal effect.
If it wasn't for Meyer having the accident (car) he probably would have over taken Preddy as Top 51 Ace.

I find it fascinating that you and I both have Mustang threads dating from around the same time (late 2008) yet we both continue to constantly re-work our profiles. You could build the real thing from scratch in less time.

Do you think its a reflection on the quality of our work or just on us!

I'm not sure if its the expanse of blue on the nose or if its the exhaust smoke, but I wonder if the front half of the NMF is a little dark. I'm only getting a sense of NMF aft of the canopy.

Its a tricky medium between too dark and too light, and its something I continue to struggle with. Sometimes I think mine is to dark then its to light, that why I've been at it for 4 years I guess.

It is one of those aircraft that you can't avoid, I know that if I had the time and didn't already have a mild interest in the Harrier it would be a type I'd come back to again and again.

I've been looking for some hours for any info (well, pictures ideally) about a 486 FS / 352 FG P-51D-5-NA: Little Marjie flow by Ernest Bostrom. Its serial is 44-13929.

Does anyone have info about this aircraft? I've been through publications and several Google searches with no success, so I'm hoping someone on SPS might be have something I can use.
