Next project is under way and you guys are probably gonna get tired of seeing P-51s from me. Working with the wheel wells and here are some progress pics.

Lot of masking

Got the center ribs in and now going to add some wire, not much, just enough to liven it up some.

Thanks for the reference pictures John, very helpful.

After hours of looking at this and going crossed eyed, I am gonna call it done. Sure it needs more plumbing but it plays the part.

Well, I abandoned HJGB and and wanted to try out my new cameo 4. Cut a bunch of 5.5mm squares and go to town.

Some touch up to do but overall happy with the results.

The tail painting looks great. I use my Cameo all the time.

I've only had it for a few weeks now but really looking forward to what I can do with it.

I'm planning my next build just so I can get to use it more, lol. Thanks
