Modelsvit Releases Sprue Photos For Upcoming New Tool Martin AM-1 Mauler

Modelsvit has provided an update on the development of their new tool Martin AM-1 Mauler model kit in 1/48 scale.

Martin Company for the U.S. Navy during World War II, intended to haul very heavy ordnance loads from fleet carriers but entering service only in 1948 due to development delays and technical troubles, and serving in small numbers until the early 1950s before being eclipsed by the more successful Douglas AD Skyraider.

The latest update features test shots of the latest sprue production. Check them out below.
