Operation Overlord Part 1 “Eduard P-51B 1/48”

September 6, 2024 · in Aviation · · 10 · 333

Excited to share my completed opened Eduard P-51B 1/48 as my first contribution to an Operation Overlord Group Build I'm participating in. This build went together in just over a month along with 2 other fighters which really challenged my pacing.

This plane and the other fighters are planned to be part of a maintenance diorama in the upcoming few weeks. Expect to see the other fighters in a day or two 😅.

Kit: Eduard P-51B Mustang Royal Edition 1/48 + Brassin Engine & Gun Bays
