| Skyediamonds1985 | Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang | Reference | 08-Jun-18 20:55 |  | | Views : 979 | | A close up of the cockpit area shows the coaming around the front windshield to be at an angle. This is where a lot of modelers make a mistake and "assume" this also doubles as the instrument panel. The instrument panel is more vertical and its also located i"inside" or under the coaming. |

| Skyediamonds1985 | Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang | Build | 07-Jun-18 01:05 |  | | Views : 934 | | Hey, not too bad, eh? I tried a combination of small panels, butt panels, overlapping panels, single and double rivet patterns. All came out really nice. Total application time for all of the small section panels and rivets, about 15 minutes. |
| Skyediamonds1985 | Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang | Build | 07-Jun-18 01:03 |  | | Views : 907 | | This time I purchased a set of "pounce wheels" from MicroMark to be used to reproduce rivets on the backside for the rivet patterns to be seen on the front side. I only needed to run down the pounce wheel along a straight edge. No mind-numbing tapping of the hammer over tens of thousands of faux rivets. |
