    Thanks, those different color reflections don’t help any.

    Thanks very much and just one more, as I added the black stripes (decals) to the tail. I had seen some Google Images of Mustangs that appealed to me with the stripes. 5D257DE8-7B2B-4A1B-AA7F-9CA5779EE36C.jpeg I often get some ideas from there. A variety of decals come with this model for different P51D Mustangs but I only used the ones in this case for the tail. I placed the other ones pretty much as depicted in the instructions that came with it.
