Grizly Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 It's the Tamiya 1/32 kit with the Eduard Brassin port engine, Xtracolor paints and Aviaeology decals. The aircraft represents one flown by Squadron Leader Vic Cherry, a Texan who flew with the RCAF's 418 Squadron. 26 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benji Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 (edited) Great job Grizly! Gotta love the Mozzi. IMO it's one of the most beautiful planes of the war, and you've done it justice on your build. 👍 How was it to build?

Grizly Posted April 13, 2019 Author Share Posted April 13, 2019 The Tamiya kit presented absolutely no problems and the Aviaeology decals went on without any silvering. Conversely, some silvering was encountered with the Tamiya stencils . As for the Brassin engine, the detail is exceptional but the build/instructions are somewhat demanding. Various specific gauges of wire are also required for the Brassin engine which, unfortunately, are not included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mancunian airman Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 She is indeed a beaut. Such a graceful aircraft from all angles. Strange type wing roundels that I dont recall seeing before, I would like to know your reference for that please ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
