I'm sorry Harold,

but I haven't finished painting Mustangs just yet...I've calculated that I've done more than a 100, so another..well...about 8000 more to go...
Here's a few examples of the latest ones I've done, most for the Shockwave WWII P-51D, except for 'Warhorse' which was a request for Warwick Carters P-51.
I hope you like them, both repaint- and screenshot- wise.

Nice indeed. You must LOVE Mustangs......

jankees! what are the black stripes on the wings inicate back in the war you know?

What Warhorse paint (the last one) is kind of a Matte and non Photo-real paint unlike your others... What happened :-?

But the other are absolutely excellant!  :o

The original wasn't bare metal, but painted overall, matte indeed, and it's a different model altogether, the Mustang by Warwick Carter, for which I (have to) use a different paintkit.
Non of them are photoreal by the way, for the others I use a paintkit by John Terrell, which is just fantastic.

As for the black stripes, most Iwo Jima Mustangs had those, and they are referred to as bomb-aiming stripes. I have no idea how this is supposed to work though, maybe someone else on this forum?

The lines on the wings...are those some sort of turn coordinator?
