Arturo Navarro´s P-51D II. It is the only What if he has made, and I want to show you. I love this plane.

I do not think it is an Apache as it does not have the dive brakes.
However, what a gorgeous model  :thumbsup:

I like. Woulda been a "contendah" on Guadalcanal, etc., instead of the P-400 and old P-40's. Maybe "shoulda" been in "Flying Tigers" livery!!
My mind is like a compost heap: both "fertile" and "rotten"!

That's excellent, and the mix of 'old' and 'new'Mustangs works really well. The 'P' marking and the yellow undersides are the icing on the cake.  :thumbsup: :bow:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

I like! Definately a "what would have been" had we not stepped in with a decent engine!

Makes you wonder, had it stuck with the Allison engine, would it have just been another "coulda beens"?

That looks so right.  A Koala Stamp for that!

My thoughts exactly - you reading my mind ?  :blink:. Please pass our congratulations on to your friend
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I would suggest on the basis of that model, we should invite your friend to join us here!  :thumbsup:

Just a question to understand: what are the parts from P-51A? :unsure: nose and wing roots? (the fin without extension was true on P-51D-5, as proposed on the Heller 1/72 P-51D)
