I've searched to no avail. I thought Isradecals would be the best bet, but don't see any. Do they exist?

Hi,

I haven't seen any around. In that scale, however, it should be relatively easy to mask and paint?

Are you thinking Mustangs? For Suez!?! :-)

Cheers!

I'm busted. You're right. Thinking of doing Cpt. Elad Paz's crashed P-51D. Need a plane with removable engine cowling and gun bays. The 1/32 Hasegawa is my second choice.
And If not masking then just cutting the decals from white and blue decal stock.

That souds like an awsome project!

I got a picture of the crashed aircraft in Osprey's "Arab-Israeli Air Wars". I would love to see a model of that scene!

If you go for 1/32, then I believe these should be the right decals?

Don't forget to sign up here.

Cheers!

Does your picture have a dude with a white scarf looking into the cockpit? If not, then I'd like to see that one. I hate working with only one photograph. And yeah, it should be a cool project, if I can fit it in. Unfortunately, I've already done the Centurion and M47 for that time frame, so I can't use those.

It's the same photo, I'm afraid.

The Mustang is a real beauty, and it might be interesting to build it "pre-crash"?

The fact that captain Paz, having crashed this Mustang, managed to walk for 37 hours! in the Sinai desert to get back behind the Israeli lines adds extra spice to the subject!




Cheers!

Someone's already done a pre-crash one, and quite nicely, I might add.
