Fantasy Printshop has released a new decal set covering the North American Mustang Mk.III in British and Commonwealth service.

A lavish eleven options are offered. Schemes vary with some rarely seen options. These include bare metal, Olive Drab and Neutral Grey, PRU Blue, Dark Green and Ocean Grey, and Dark Green and Dark Earth over Azure Blue (or Du Pont paint equivalents).

 

 

The set is made up from one decal sheet and full colour A4 colour instructions sheets packed securely in a clear zip-lock plastic bag.

The glossy decal sheet is printed by Fantasy Printshop. The colour and saturation look great, and carrier film is thin. These should go down beautifully on your model.

 

 

Specific subjects are as follows:

  1. Mustang Mk.III, KH427/GN-V, 249 Squadron, Bifernoi, Italy, 1944

  2. Mustang Mk.III, FB2??/HS-H, 260 Squadron, Italy, 1944

  3. Mustang Mk.III, LD-Y, 250 Squadron RAF, Lavariano, Italy, 1946 (this is noted as an RAAF Squadron in the instructions but it is in fact an RAF Squadron.
