TJH | Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang | Build | 13-Mar-22 19:42 | | Views : 676 | Started building this in late 2020, and lots of other stuff in between. I was able to complete the covering this weekend. Sneak preview, more work to go. Many cool color schemes for the P51, but it was an easy decision to honor the colors of the Tuskegee Airmen. |

crob | Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang | Parked | 06-Nov-21 11:49 | | Views : 678 | I found this from Outerzone. Originally 13" wingspan, blown up to 1/16th scale to match the Precious Metal. Any tips, tricks, advice before starting on this endovor? I have a Diels Bearcat i thought about converting, but 100% sctrach would be cool too. Especially after seeing the canopy forming - i think i want to give it a shot. |

Water for 5 seconds and they slide off in 30. No setting solution required and they just sink right into every detail. Very impressed with them. |

crob | Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang | Parked | 20-Oct-21 08:40 | | Views : 626 | Experiment with Liquid Chrome paint pen. I’m pretty impressed with it, works great if you need some chrome details like landing gear, antenna, or in my case – polished aluminum components. Beats the heck out of trying to use HVAC tape around nightmare compound corners… it kind of feels like cheating though. Same for 3D printed parts - I have much respect for those whom build details from the balsa – hats off to you for sure. But... if you have the means : ) |
crob | Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang | Parked | 17-Oct-21 14:36 | | Views : 640 | 3rd times a charm. At least one of the failed attempts left me with a good spinner for a P40.... now I have to build a P40. 3D printing ( like all technology ) is nice - when it works... |
crob | Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang | Parked | 12-Oct-21 08:15 | | Views : 660 | started the rivet detail, although not sure if it's worth it. Step back a foot or two and it all disappears. |
