I take a couple of models with me when I head up for work. I normally take a 1/72 kit and a 1/48 kit with me. This time I'm gonna take this Image

I think this will be the 1/48 model I'll take with me. Just not 100% sure yet. I bought this 1/72 kit off of Justin Wood from AMI a while ago to do a 1/48 version. I'll be using 1 of my many (20+) Tamiya P-51 kits I have in the stash.

The Mustang needs a 109 friend don't you think?

I've already done a 1/48 109. I'll only be building 2 more and they'll be in 1/72 as racers. After that there'll be no more as they don't really do that much for me :)

Right. There's been a change of plans. At this stage (subject to change of course) these are now the kits I'm taking to TSV

I've just found a pink Mustang MkIII to do later as well for my PR theme I have

I don't think that Mustang is right. 541 Squadrons Mustang MkIII's were overall PRU blue with full invasion stripes.

Don't panic Brad. It's a WIF. But I will have to do a PRU blue P-51to go with all the Spit PR XIXs and PR IV Mosquito I have to build.

Ah...a WIF, ok. He did absolutely nail the pink though.

Yeah he did good with the pink. Hope I can pull it off half as good as that :)
