RJ the Hasegawa P51is a blinder of a kit !! just beware that the undercarriage fitment leas a lot to be desired apart from that the detail is superb just get a few waldron cockpit plackards and it will look the nuts

i was planning on using Eduard stuff:

http://www.eduard.cz/products/card.p...fbac88d43be9b3

http://www.eduard.cz/products/card.p...f6b8343170e48d

http://www.eduard.cz/products/card.p...=&page_start=0

or i could use this:

http://www.aircraftresourcecenter.co...P-51D/v787.htm

what do you think?

have you done this kit then? what is wrong with the fit of the wheel bays? (too big/small?)

and for £19 this must be the cheapest 1/32 kit you can get!!....and im getting it for £15

They are fine when i made mine i used the waldron set thats all the prob with the wheels is that its quite a heavy kit and when you put it down the undercarriage flexes forwards it looks wrong and eventually it breaks

I'm the boring old tidy mind type (remember the workbench?). I would finish the one you are doing first.

I don't always practise what I preach though!!!!
