Excellent job, both of you. It shows what can be done with a diecast model when there is the will and the skill to do it.

Thanks for the comments guys.

Re: Hobbymaster P-39 "Old Crow" Repaint

Great job, I love seeing these customs, almost as much as I hate the fact I don’t have the ability to make my own.

This weekend I able to hear “Bud” Anderson speak about his experience during WWII along with 3 other distinguished Mustang pilots at Seattle’s Museum of Flight. Believe me when "Bud" says he could not speak if he had to sit on his hands he is not kidding. Every time I have met him he has had the same commanding presence yet has always been very approachable and generous with his time. It is easy to see why you would want this man on your side if you were to have to go to war and not the other way around.

I had the same experience the one time I was lucky enough to meet Mr. Anderson. He was as cordial and friendly as could be. His son, Jim, is the same way.

Beautiful job - plane looks fantastic. I echo the sentiments expressed here and wish HobbyMaster made a model with these markings.
