Modeler's Workshop

 So far Arma Hobby released two kits that contains P-51B/C. This time we get Mustang in reconnaisance version designated F-6C. Courtesy of Arma Hobby Model Kits I am the happy owner of   70040 F-6C Mustang Expert Set Kit.    As usual boxart is delightful, even my wife noticed its aesthetics.:) Available painting schemes are announcement on back side of the box. The content is neatly packed in a plastic bag. There are three sprues in the kit: As you can see plastic content of this box is the same as in previous P-51B/C kit. I have described its advantages and disadvantages in previous post so if you are interested in check it out . Kit includes precut paper masks. Unfortunatelly they are not too photogenic... In the box we can find also plate with photoedged parts. It is rather small but contains everything we need I think. Despite only four variants of markings the decal sheet is included in the kit is quite large. Decals, printed by Techmod, are of very good qualit...

I reviewed bigger Mustang from Eduard on this blog, so it is time for smaller one from Arma Hobby. I decidet to buy kit with overtrees, becouse in Expert Set there are doubled decals. Due to that almost without any additional aftermarkets you can build two models. Sounds great isn't it?

For me there is nothing more American than Mustang. Both Ford Mustang and P-51 Mustang. I was schocked to discover that without Royal Air Force this plane would probably never have been designed. Isn't it ironic that the USA owes its iconic plane to Great Britain?
