stevej60 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Hi folks,My entry is the Easy-kit boxing of the Mustang III,I have the extra decal sheet with markings for a PR version in blue with ID stripes on the fuselage.The kit should arrive mid week.Although a bit toy like most of the range builds up into a decent enough replica of the respective type and actual construction ready for paint can take only minutes,at £3;99 I'm not going to complain about the kit's shortfall's certainly not the best but equally not the worst. I am restricted to maybe two hours on Saturday and Sunday and a little time Monday morning due to work but hope to finish I,ll use my mobiles clock in any photo's. A review of said kit. http://www.internetmodeler.com/2008/march/first-looks/hobbyboss_p51c.php 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevej60 Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 Thanks Stix,I have a soft spot for these Hobbyboss kit,s as I mentioned in chat we were out for lunch yesterday and I picked up their Spitfire Vb for £2 and it was ready for paint in less than ten minutes,with a left over set of glazing from an old Italeri kit it should turn out a decent little build. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevej60 Posted August 25, 2016 Author Share Posted August 25, 2016 (edited) Morning all,kit arrived yesterday and a peruse of the sprue's reveal a nice little model could be made from this one,the only let down are the too shallow wheel well's(not the only manufacturer to fall down in this area) and the possible fit of the canopy which I won,t know about till the build begins as I'm touching nothing till then.

PlaStix Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Well it certainly looks good in the box. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevej60 Posted August 25, 2016 Author Share Posted August 25, 2016 Well it certainly looks good in the box. For £3:99 Stix you can't complain,nicely molded and some lovely panel lines,the knack with these kit's is to cut out the "snap fit" pips and rely on glue I find you get a better fit that way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
