Freightdog two stage Mosquito sets in 1/72 coming soon


Recommended Posts

With the imminent release of the new Airfix 1/72 DH Mosquito B.XVI kit, I am pleased to announce that Freightdog have six resin sets due for release very soon, with more to follow. Masters are finished, with thanks to Airfix for early access to test shots. Sets under preparation include conversions for the B.IX, PR.IX, PR.XVI, PR.32, PR.34 and B.35. Images of test castings to follow soon.

I think I will wait to see what Special Hobby do, might be quite a complex conversion. First two sets will be a B.XVI / B.35 improvement set and B,XVI with ventral H2S conversion. Available in around two weeks.

That's great Colin. The ventral H2S piece should allow one of the aircraft on the upcoming Xtradecal sheet to be built.

Yes, although the Xtradecal sheet instructions show it with a bulged bomb bay, it should be flat. There are some notes in my sets instructions about the scheme on the sheet.

Can't find them on the web site.

Search 'Mosquito'  at top of website and it should show them both.

B.XVI/B.35 due back in stock on the freightdog website beginning of next week.

 

Thanks,

Colin

 

Is there any chance you'll be producing an open bomb bay doors option?

To be honest it would be quite easy to cut the rear of my closed bomb bay off, and use the kit bomb doors with the detail sanded off.    

 

 

The B.XVI/B.35 is back in stock again on the Freightdog website.

 

Thanks,

Colin

Hi Colin

 

Do you have an estimated release schedule for your remaining conversion sets please?
