1/48 Mirage Resin Models FMA IA-58 Pucara

Gallery Article by Fabian Mario Vera on Aug 10 2009

 

This is a new kit of the Pucara, the best in 1/48 scale!

It comes with resin parts and strong white metal for the landing gear.

The decals set includes one version finished in aluminium and the plane flight in test for the RAF.

The kit was developed by Antares Models and the decals manufactured by Condor Decals.

It is not a complex kit, I used only 25 hours to complete it, and its only shortcoming is it doesn't incorporate armament. The LAU´s are Hasegawa and TER´s are Hobbycraft.

I really enjoy assembling this kit!
