That looks great Space Ace pal, nice job. Only thing that may need changing are the C Type roundels as I'm almost certain it should have B Type above the wings (I'm using the Dragon Wings 1/72 dicast model to base that assumption on) other than that, it's just fine!

not really, if u look closely under the wings on the profile u sent me the roundel is different.

The one on ur pic is a P-51K Mustang from 3 Squadron RAAF from Fano Italy circa 1945.

as bonus, ive also finished this other repaint, i finnaly got the noseart done



now, can u guess the squadron, pilot name and nacionality??

Space pal, that shot shows the under wing roundel and that is C Type. The B type roundels were used on upper wing surfaces. However, after Jan 1945 all (or most as some units did not bother) RAF/RCAF/RAAF etc. aircraft serving with second TAF had C or C1 type roundels applied to upper wing surfaces, so your repaint is probably correct. Whatever, it still looks fantastic!
Anyhow, "Y2" code letters were used during WW2 by 442 (Canadian) Squadron. I have no idea who flew your Mustang though!
