What I have been up too
« on: February 05, 2019, 11:02:38 AM »
Over the past few months I have been building Revells new tooled Mustang in 32 scale . I added a bit of stuff to the pit and a few scratched details
For the wheel bay Eduards PE set was used and two months of detailing later results turned out pretty good . This is my first try at srcatch building and detailing . Totally different then 48 scale . Many parts had to be remade over a few times . It is far from being accurate . I used refs at home and the WWW .

Guyana bigger scales...


Thanks ! 3/4 of the kits I pick up last year are 32 scale . Don't buy much of 48 anymore . Failing eye sight and the large scale well ...it is fun !

Thank you very much guys  :)


I have finished adding the details to the landing gear legs and bomb/drop tank racks . I tried doing the brake lines using one piece but it didn't turn out that way . Each line has three sections .

Up next is some re-scribing and rivet details . The cowling panels have lots of rivet details but they didn't do the top cowling part ???? Why would they miss this . Easy fix   :)

Will start with the gear doors first
