Cockpit kit for Marek's Mustangs!

**airdave** · #1 03-05-2010, 06:35 PM

Been working on this for a while now
and I think I have just about everything in place.

This Cockpit should fit into all my repainted 1/33 scale P-51 Mustangs!

I have already done a partial build in one of my Tuskegee Mustangs.
And I have another test build in process...hopefully I can post some pics soon.

My repaints of course, were all using Marek's original 1/50 scale P-51B
and so I have included a 1/50 scale version (of all parts) in the same kit, which should fit just about any 1/50 scale Marek P-51.

My 1/33 scale P-51A and Apache kits were also based on the same kit,
so it will fit those too!

One of the things I have included in the kit it an inner frame for the Cockpit Canopy.
This will allow you to sandwich some clear material between the existing outer canopy part
and the new inside canopy layer
to create a clear windowed canopy that can also be hinged to open.

Cool! I've got the 1:33 Macon Belle so this kit is a must-have. I hope you make a line of cockpits for other models such as Ken West's Cougar and Panther in addition to more of Marek's kits.

almost...just waiting on some final photos and report.
I have a friend installing it in one of his builds.
I did a test build myself, but I wanted to see it built by someone else first.

I have a friend installing the Cockpit in one of his own Mustang redesigns
and I was hoping to post some pics of that work by this time
but unfortunately it isn't ready...sorry.
