Thanks to you both! ;)
Sorry about 30% of my models are asymmetric, not 100%... :-\ :unsure: ;D

Painting the underside (not to be seen normally) into a single airplane, not compound mix anymore:

I have painted the side above (for the P-51J-21) and I should explain. The canopy will be black at the end, coloured with an ink pen but I had problems with that on the J.21P-51: the dry acrylic paint is blocking the pen head, so I have to avoid painting all the canopy sky blue at first (the way I did with enamel Humbrol paint).
So: first I left the canopy all without colour, ready to be coloured in black.
Then: I remembered the frame will be blue, so I added a little extra paint there:

The twin-boom Mustang P-51J-21 model is finished! (my way, without wheels nor roundels nor weapons...) :-\ :unsure: ;D

Very good, straight out of the Ingelwood Design Office.  :thumbsup:
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! :)

Thanks a lot! Here is the couple (I am glad I turned the dreamy drawing into "true" objects/birds...):
