I have finally finished two 1/48 ICM Mustangs, one of which has been on the 'shelf of doom' for around 8 years.

The first is a CAC Mustang that was converted to a Racer VH-AUB. This model was completed using Red Roo Models decals.



The second is a RAAF CAC Mustang TT A68-136. This model was made using a Red Roo Models Target Towing conversion set and some Eduard PE.



I will be putting more images on Aussie Modeller website int he near future.

Beautifully finished builds Harvs, it's great to see some uncommon schemes on this aircraft.

I will check your posts on Aussiemodeller.

Very well done models, indeed. Pleasant alternatives to the usual, commonly done military colors.

Congrats on finishing a 8 year old work in progress kit. Both models have near on perfect finishes, and both are rather unusual, which makes them stand out from the crowd.
