Spanjaardnice job. did you cut the mask for the "big beautifu doll" by hand, or with one of those cameo machines?

Slavo HazuchaYou really are dedicated to work on one particular aircraft type - I wonder how many "shades of Stang" you can produce...😉
Very much like the job on the wings, the structure and pattern of the weathering seems to hit what is seen on some pictures really well 👍

MathieuHi mates. Thank you for your kind words.
Spanjaard. There is no way I could cut so precisely. I designed the cutting pattern under the silhouette software using various decals sheets, profiles and period pictures. The cameo3 then did the job. I just still need to find the correct setting for cutting the small crosses on the victory board.
Slavo, yes ! Some could say I am ocd :-D I can not contest that. I would rather say I have phases. Few years back I was building focke wulf, then I had my spitfire time. I have still a few mustang to finish before I can say I am done with the subject. Btw I am still waiting to follow your rendition of the Cadillac of the sky.
Xavier, merci cher compatriote, content qu'il te plaise j'y mets pas mal de cœur. J'espère pouvoir suivre ton montage également ! Au plaisir

Günther DecockMathieu, alvast schitterend werk met het detail in de vleugels en cockpit. In de cockpit is toch een deel scratchbuild of niet? Super 👍

MathieuHi Gunther, Thanks for your kind words. There is a few scratch in the cockpit. mainlay the wiring and piping. Placards are from barracuda, seatbelts are HGW and the IP is from Yahu. Cheers

MathieuHa, Thank you Spanjaard 🙂
The nose is just holding together with the magnet, I still want to add the Merlin, but struggling with the motivation in front of all the piping. I notice a lot of small paint correction looking a the pics, so i have an excuse to delay it further 🙂
Cheers.
