Diorama Dreams: 2004

"Mustang Sallee"
1/6 scale / Private Commission

This is a 1/6 scale replica based on the P-51D Mustang flown by Cpt. Richard Turner (aka "Short-Fuse Sallee") in the European Theatre of World War II. This replica was built using balsa and plywoods, augmented by functioning hand brazed brass components, then coated with fiberglass and marine resin, and finished with hand-lain metal foils and custom graphics.
