[Iain]

We take a look at the second of two new decal sheets from Fantasy Printshop covering the P-51B (Mustang Mk.III) in RAF Service - Part B.

 

 

Have fun!

Nice review,  thanks Iain.

And now all we need is a model kit. Which one will be the first? Eduard or ZM?

[Iain]

I have high hopes for both...  😃

 

On past impressions, and looking at the 1:48th Mustangs, I'll probably lean towards the Eduard kit - but really great that we may just get 2 great options!

the Eduard one is a couple of years away at least I thought Vladimir Sulc has been quoted as saying?

 

basically don’t get your hopes up for anything from anyone anytime soon

[Iain]

Indeed - 2026 I suspect. We'll see I guess.

 

Personally, I have more than enough to keep me busy (sidetracked) until then...  😆

I take it the Trumpeter kit is best to avoid?

The moment the other 2 release their kit these will plummet to zero in value, but for the time being they are the only game in town

 

there was a 3DP guy doing a conversion / correction last year but it died (the fact that I don’t remember who it was tells me it went cold)

Amen.

They look nice, but one is incomplete. 

 

FZ152, "SS" with the invasion stripes, is the personal mount of the top-scoring Polish ace Stanislaw Skalski. They omitted his Wing Commander pennant and scoreboard. I was happy to see the subject included on the sheet but something didn't quite look right...

 

I've let them know and received a very kind and professional reply.
