Please read before you judge! This build was done for my son and will be used as a toy! My son once saw a RC Voodoo Mustang and immediately fall in love with it. Keeping asking me to buy it for him, which makes no sense for a 5 year old boy, I decided to build one for him that looks close to the RC plane and not the real one. I chose the cheapest P-51 kit in 1/48 I could find and created this plane based on foto references. Some markings are painted, for some I used decals. Please keep that in mind before you judge ... any comment highly appreciated

thx Thomas! The purple turned out a bit too dark, but it´s OK for a toy 😝

Looks great, but I hope he will be happy even it doesn't fly 😉 It can fly, but only once ....

Thanks @bughunter 🤩 I'm pretty sure it will fly more than one time … usually he takes care of the builds I do for him. Airwolf is still alive and a way more fragile model 🤷♂️

many thanks Henry! It´s OK for a toy I would say. Could be done better but who knows how long it lasts in the hand of a 5 year old lad 😆 I made him very happy and that made me very happy - a win-win for both 😍
