  1. Hello guys! I was really counting for "definitive" model of this plane (like GWH P-40) but what we get is not jaw dropping. Correct kit, not hard to put together, with very plain surface (and ugly tail moving parts which I corrected). Still this is new quality level comparing to PCM or CenturyToys. Building process
  2. Thank you guys! Thank you DocRob! There is only one kit in plastic PZL P.11c from polish company IBG :). Yea 3D printing is outstanding and anyone can now made its own kits its pricy for normal modeller bo not even close to plastic injection costs.
  3. Thanks Dernnis, this isn't shake and bake kit but finished looks very "Juggish" Good luck with yours! Martin, big thanks!
  4. Hi guys! That's my freshly finished PZL P.7A. It offers superb surface, nice engine and fine details but working with it requires other glues (I used CA and 2 part glue when I need to have more time), material is prone to breaking so you must be careful (I can compare it to resin). What can I say, 3D printing has a bright future in our hobby. Machine was belonging to lieutenant Erwin Kawnik, in 1 September 1939 he had his part in taking down He-111(code number L1+KN) and damaging other (L1+HN). In afternoon same day he was fighting with Bf 110 from 2.(Z)/LG1. Despite damages (plane was barely controlable) he menaged to safely land. PZL P.7 WIP My whole 1939 collection. 109E, P.7A, P.11C experimental camo, P-11C standard light khaki with repainted white stripe.
  5. Nice work John! Did Revell wings fit well to Tamiya Fuselage?
  6. Thank you PanzerWomble I really appreciate your words!
  7. This is my most recent work. Trumpeter kit is decent (but fit is not so well) I was often suprised by small details which Trumpy preserved well. Kit offers section behind engine but it is mosty empty, I cutted one of panels and did scratch work (cables, pipes) to make it look busy. Other additions: - Eduard interior PE - Vacu canopy - details in ammo compartment - Aber gun barrels - Montex masks - cables in engine - hollowed out bazookas
  8. This D-9 was painted red with white stripes on bottom to help land anti-aircraft crews recognize german planes, this particullar Dora was used to protect Me-262 jets starting / lading on airfields . In 1945 when allies had total domination in skies they basically shoot everything they saw so this pattern could help. This plane on side has inscription which translates to "Sell my stuff, I'm going to heaven" - pilot had awareness that every flight can be his last.
  9. Hi guys! Finished few years ago. Added Yahu IP, seatbelts, Bronze Eduard Legs for Fw-190A. Kit is simple to build, not requiring tons of filler or lots of fitting. But i think that newer release with full engine and richer surface detail is needed.
  10. Thank you guys!😀 Thanks! I'm not a fan of later versions so night Corsair is a good idea for making Birdcage once again. Thank you John, yes Tamiya is producing masterpieces. Sadly they don't love 32 anymore 😒
  11. Very nice job! Soon there will be P.7A from this producer and I'm grabbing it. I will use my multitool grinder to polish surface, maybe this is a solution because it can work very precisely even beetwen rivet lines.
  12. Clean but elegant warbird! Very sad thing that they gave up on making plastic.
  13. Tamiya fantastic kit out of the box. Montex masks for stars and numbers.
  14. Thank you very much guys! I added some photos on black background.
  15. Thanks you so much guys! If you have it in this stage, it's worth to finish. But I don't suggest anyone to buy it and start from 0. Wait for new one, sooner or later somebody will release it, maybe as a 3D print - now its booming.
  16. I bulid this one for collector. Make long story short - cockpit from scratch, wheel bays, flaps interior with added many details. Surface rescribed / riveted. Fortunately shapes of original plane were well preserved. Kit is rare, not produced for many years. Urban legend says its molds sunk. Canopy is yellowish because model was placed in diorama showing abandoned plane on one of pacific islands.
  17. I was always Italian WWII planes/camo admirer. ICM kit is very nice, It only requires patinence mainly in assembling wings but wheel covers and overall geometry need it too. In other words you must be carefull. I placed ICM Axis pilots Italian guy inside, Yahu IP, added cables inside engine, underside reflector, canopy leather roller. Insignia from Montex masks.
  18. Thank you kindly Martin I appreciate your words
  19. Hi guys, my older work, Cobra from SH. Added PE to interior, effects of working surface (but too slightly done), rudder length is extended to compensate fuselage being too short. Nose gun from brass tube and with Master barrel. Kit is short run and it requires "dirty" work but I was always a fan of these colorfull New Guinea schemes.
