Brengun has released a detail set for the P-51D Mustang in 1/144^th scale. Kit manufacturers recommend are Platz, Eduard, and Bego (all from the same mold).

In the Box

This detail set will provide enough material for two complete Mustangs and consist of parts for the cockpit, wheel wells, and wing flaps. To bond these parts during installation will require CA (Super Glue).

The resin parts will replace the flaps, cockpit yoke, and gunsight. The photo-etched parts will add detail to the cockpit floor, side panels, instrument panel, seat belts, and underwing interior of the wheel wells.

For flap installation, some surgery will be needed to remove the kit’s flaps so cutting tools like a razor saw or similar will be needed.

Conclusions

Brengun’s P-51D detail set is very nice and will add so much more interest to your 1/144^th scale Mustang. I recommend this set to experience modelers who are comfortable with dealing with small parts, working with resin, and CA as the bonding agent.

I want to thank Hauler Brengun for providing the P-51D Mustang detail set in 1/144^th scale and IPMS/USA for allowing me the opportunity to review.
