by Tolga Ulgur

Tamiya's 1/48 P-51B is available online from Squadron.com for only $21.78!

This is my 1/48 scale Tamiya P-51B Mustang in the markings of well-known Don Gentile’s “Shangri La” from 336th FS 4th FG in March 1944.

The cockpit was modified with the Eduard instrument panel and Ultracast resin seat.

Additionally the wooden floor was made from plastic sheet and painted wood color.

Other modifications are:

• Ultracast P-51 Mustang Corrected & Detailed Flaps

• Ultracast P-51B/C Exhausts

• Ultracast P-51 Mustang Hamilton Standard Cuffed 4-Blade Propeller & Spinner set.

• Barracudacast P-51 Mustang Hexagonal Tread Wheels.

• Landing light replaced by Resicast lens.

• Painting was done with Gunze Sangyo acrylics.

Decals are from Superscale 48 821.
