P-51D IAF 1/72 scale

Sherman 18

Master at Arms
I'm in with this one. P-51D in IAF markings, I had this for years and with my current Mid East kick why not try to knock it out. There is no Sherman parts in the box :idonno

Start photos

After the photos I stuck some of the parts together and shot some paint. Not much detail for the cockpit which is fine with me for now.

Looking good Sherman. I built one of these some years back. No real issues to speak of; it should go together quite well. Just watch out for the decals when you get there. Some of my stripes tended to break apart fairly easily.

I'll be watching this with interest.

Oh, and I still need to build a Spit in Israeli markings. Can't find one in 1/72 scale.
