If you can get one, it looks a wonderful kit, interesting to see how it compares to Airfix or Tamiya P51’s

I was a huge fan of Airfix, as it is a brand that brought me into modelling so will always pay my respect to them. However Eduard brought p51 to the next level.

The only drawback, in my opinion: engine cowling, tops of the back of the fuselage could be made as separate parts (like Meng did, Airfix I think have engine cowling separately, correct me if I am wrong) and not traditional two sides fuselage, so any seem lines could be avoided. It is 2019, technology allows it + sides of spues most of the items have some details lost, and Eduard engine cowling needs rivets to be redone already from the box.  

Apart from that, I can strongly say it is the best, most detailed kit of p51d in the scale

It gives real pleasure to build - and it is the most important factor to any kit in my opinion

Shiny wheels bay

First time using Alclad II paints. Looks really impressive I would say.
