Hello! I need to change seatbelts and gunsight. These are not correct for this version.

Nice start. Why did you fill some of the panel lines? Whither material did you use for that?

Interesting. Can you write sth more about that silver goo you spread onto the wings?

Michael/Łukasz. New Mustangs has the wings primed, sanded, primed again, sanded and then painted. Exceptions are the landing gear access panel, ammunition access panels and fuel tank access panels under the wing.
I mixed Tamiya putty with 1500 black surfacer and a little of Levelling Thinner.

Laminar flow - Mustangs had their wings 'waxed' to improve airflow -

I had a big fight in the next topic on P-51, where the author stubbornly wants to depict the rivets on the wing.
But everything is correct here, but not quite. You still removed one line of embroidery in vain. The P-51 had detachable wing parts and the line should be there.

Hello! Many thanks for comments. Especially to Denis. Now, I need to discuss it with myself 🙂 Should I scribe it or maybe paint it with different shadow to mark the line.

Well, to be precise, one more line, I hope you are not tired of me yet.

I appreciate any attention, especially that documented like this. Thank you Denis.

I see that my advice has come in handy.
As for the wheel niches, at some point the manufacturers got permission not to paint them with a primer. Later, in combat conditions, places with corrosion were found in the niches. These places were painted with a primer right on the field airfields. Then the niches began to be painted at the factory again. The color of the soil could be different.

Yes, Denis, thank you again!
The Lansing gear bay will be silver with reinforcements and ribs in ZCY.

That's a great looking mustang already, I'm looking forward to see this one done 🙂

Very nice job so far 👍
Woit, did you use that styling spray in photo 33 for the Mustang?

Clement, Cuajete - thank you!
Yes, I used it as chipping fluid. More info below the photo. I just completed the descriptions.
