    I always like to build something different and what could be more so than a P-51D Mustang with the nose cut-off and a Rolls Royce Dart Turbo-Prop motor stuck on the front!!! Many years ago I build a 1/48th version using the Heritage Models Conversion kit, for a STGB way back in 2014. The conversion kit was pretty rough but I had to build it cause it just looked awesome. Fast forward 2024 and someone mentioned something about this company called Halberd Models, and that they did a conversion set for the Cavalier Turbo Mustang III and Piper Enforce in 1/48th and 1/32nd. Not long after a rather large sum of money was spent on the 1/32nd Cavalier Turbo Mustang III Conversion kit as well as a Tamiya F-51D. The build and the conversion kit has to be one of the best I've ever come across, the detail and quality of the resin bits have to be some of the best there are available. The fit between the resin conversion and the Tamiya donor are perfect, something I've never come across in a conversion kit over all the years I've been building models! I did have one slight issue with the nose cap and the fuselage, with the fuselage not being nice and round and maybe slightly shrunken. Not a big deal and simple to correct. I haven't read of this issue so it probably just a one-off with mine, but not an issue enough to upset my joy of building her. I think now I must add the Piper Enforcer as they will look great together. I have nothing to do with this company but truly recommend you go and check out their range of models/conversion kits they are a wee bit pricy (when inc the donor model) but they are just amazing and I think well worth the price....unfortunately they have sold out on the future release 1/32nd XP-72 Ultrabolt!!!! Thank you for looking and please enjoy the photos Model: Halberd Cavalier Turbo Mustang III Conversion Scheme: Factory Demonstrator Paint: AK Interactive Real Color, and MRP, Tamiya Acrylics, Gunze Mr Color Metallics Extras: Zoukei-Mura A-1 Skyraider Weapons Set.

    This is a Tamiya P-51D kit with Aires wheelwells, DIY tail conversion, DIY decals/masks and with puttied wings and riveted fuselage. The build can be found in the KUTA IX GB: New Gallery pictures here because I was not happy with the pics I posted in the KUTA gallery... René
