Tamiya's 1/48 scale
Mustang Mk.III

by Hector Lopez

 

North American Mustang Mk.III
3 Squadron RAAF, Fano, Italy, Winter 1944/45

 


Tamiya's 1/48 scale P-51B Mustang is available online from Squadron


 

Description

 

This is Tamiya's 1/48 P-51B Mustang finished in the markings of 3 Squadron RAAF, based at Fano in Italy during the winter of 1944/45.

I was inspired in a model I saw in an article about Aussie Mustang Mk.III. That model was made by Chris Wauchop and I followed every indication he wrote in the article.

I used Mr. Color Paints and Aeromaster decals.

 

 

The kit seat was changed by an Cutting Edge one, and the wheels came from True Details.  I installed an Eduard Zoom set too.

The control column is from a Cutting Edge set for the Sea Fury, but I think it works well here.
