After playing with metal tones, this is the best tone to work so far. I took the P-51 standard blueish metal tone and then darkened it about 25%. It turned out ok, with the higher shine there is a greater contrast with the much less shiny fabric control surfaces, couldn't do much about it. Per request I added a version with teeth. Also will include a subdued shine version. Will be for both B and C variants. I will just package it as one with subfolders containing alternate textures for teeth/no teeth, reg shine/super shine(different fresnels)...ala 'Stang Evil.

keep on coming back to look at it, great job guys. Personally prefer the less shiney one of the Spitfire, the shiney one of the P-40 and the inbetweeners for the Mustang hehe :icon_lol:

The P-40 works so well because of the exterior panel textures and screw detents. Plus all the bumps and curves of the P40 body add to the reflectivity. The great creativity of the painter's keeps me coming back to your models!
