Tamiya 1/48 kit. I really like the green stripes but they were really trying to get them all lined up right.

That is a fine build, Adam! I really like the finish, but the stripes take the cake!

Adam, I've looked at these Mustang pics several times now and it is just really great. Those tail stripes just make the deal man! Excellent model plane!
