If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .

Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Wrapped up the 33 year old Mustang today! Talk about finally getting around to finishing a build! Not too shabby. I might experiment airbrushing on some exhaust stains and gun residue. There will be a NMF stablemate that I started about the same time. Thank heavens for the Super/Micro Scale decals I bought several years ago.









I lost the wing landing light part so I'll have to think of a replacement

I wouldn't say snails pace.. I'd say it got more refined with age  :wacko:
Looks awesome 👌 😊

That's looking stunning! There's something special about a razorback Mustang in camo, and your build has captured that "something" perfectly!

Cheers,
