First order of business was to remove the panel near the rear radiator and install PE panel with vents. Not a real big fan of this type cutting. I would much rather had them do like Tamiya did with their 1/32 mustang and have plastic inserts. It's a tricky place to cut and clean up and the PE was not a true drop in fit but got it close enough.

Now to try and get my cockpit to look like a post WWII, ANG, then Korean War. By this time the cockpits would had looked rough.
Going to use the P-51D from the https://www.nationalmuseum.af.mil/V.../Article/196263/north-american-p-51d-mustang/
As reference.

Very interesting. I tried a multicolored mottle on a subject once, where I screwed up was it didn't have a consistent sheen. When I get the shop up and running I'm going to try that preshading again.
This should be interesting!
