Thanks.

This is my second Airfix kit and I have to confess that these are totally different in quality from the kits I was used to build 30 years ago.

In the meanwhile I tried the Tamiya smoke for the first time and did some weathering too.

Fantastic Francesco, this is turning out to be a great build. Nice job on the smoke stains.
 
Missed the beginning of this, just caught up, looking beautiful Francesco, can't wait to see it finished.

Looks superb in the pics francesco , i love it. I think a satin final finish overall should be fine for both the natural metal and painted areas , cheers tony

Nicely build Francesco.

I think the paint and decal work are excellent!

Cheers

That really is a very nicely done Mustang Francesco, great build mate.

The engine, from a helicopter perhaps?
