About product

Mustang Mk.IV SPACE 1:48 — Eduard three-dimensional decals

This is not a kit of an aircraft, but an accessory for the cockpit. The SPACE line from the Czech maker Eduard builds on decals with a raised, three-dimensional surface: the dials, panels and switches are not merely a printed area but have real depth and glossy glass faces. The decal is applied straight onto the plastic part from the box, so painting the small instruments falls away. SPACE sets are usually accompanied by pre-painted seat belts in etched sheet; please check the particular contents of this package against the packaging and the enclosed instructions, as it is not itemized here.

The real subject

The Mustang Mk.IV is the British designation for the late Mustangs with a teardrop canopy that the Royal Air Force took over during the Second World War. The basis was the American North American P-51 fighter with a license-built Merlin V12 engine and a two-stage supercharger. The combination of a clean aerodynamic shape, a large fuel load and a high-altitude engine made it an escort fighter with exceptional range. The teardrop canopy also removed the blind spot in the view to the rear.

Building and painting tips

First spray the plastic instrument panel part in a dark color and let it dry completely — the edges of the decal will then not show through. Moisten only the backing paper under the decal, transfer the part with tweezers onto the piece and press it down with a soft brush, but do not press hard on the raised features, so that the relief is not crushed. Fix it with white PVA glue; a decal softener does not belong here, as its chemistry attacks the printed resin. Fit the whole assembly before the fuselage is glued together and try the fit dry.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers building the Mustang in its British form in 1:48 scale
  • Those who want a three-dimensional cockpit without painting dials
  • Builders who leave the canopy open
  • Beginners looking for a quick improvement to the interior

This is an accessory, not a model. The kit, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

The decals have a raised, three-dimensional surface — the dials and switches have real depth and the glass faces a gloss, so the cockpit does not read as flat.

You do not. It is enough to lay a dark color under the part so that the edges of the decal do not show through; the decal takes care of the rest.

Do not use one. The manufacturer rules it out for the SPACE line, as its chemistry attacks the printed resin. Fix the part with white PVA glue.

It is not; it is an accessory for the cockpit. The kit has to be obtained separately.
