Heres the P51

Heres the pictures of this artisans P51.

Again, I must say over and over..... you have to see the model in person to really see the detail work.

Anything you want to see enlarged, let me know.

Look close at the engine...... several of the exhaust stacks were removed and you can see the exhaust ports

Look at the closeup of the cockpit and notice the red trigger button on the control stick.

That is attention to detail!

I do not have the words to express my admiration for this kind of detail and reality. I am just flat amazed. This has got to be the most fabulous site on the net to be able to humble us all.

Remember, this museum is free to the public, and it caters to people who appreciate fine craftsmanship.

Wasn't the Corsair in an issue of FSM? Too bad they didn't trouble themselves to include more shots of this man's work.

Looks cool. Just wish I had that ability, then maybe I would be making similarly detailed models of the B-36 Peacemaker (That might get a bit large) and the AH-64D Apache Longbow...
