I built the 1/32 PZL and found the IBG decals very good to work with. Cheers Rob You know, I was most concerned that these calques from IBG would not lay down on the corrugated surface. And here was such a pleasant surprise. So I still have to build P.11a and c and the whole P.24 series. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriss Posted July 15, 2023 Author Share Posted July 15, 2023 The antenna is done, so another stage of the work is completed. Just the cab cover to go and there will be another miniature on the shelf for the collection. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriss Posted July 17, 2023 Author Share Posted July 17, 2023 In the IBG kit there is a traditional injection-moulded cab cowl as well as an option to make it from sheet metal, the film is also included. The injection-moulded cowl is very transparent and you can see everything nicely through it in the closed option. If you want to make an open cockpit, then the thickness of the walls in 72 is unfortunately too visible; I want to show the inside of the cockpit in mine, so I'm making an open cowl. I will use the injected one as a coping for stamping the new cowl as well as for shaping the cabin frame. Another dilemma is how did the cabin open on the PZL P.24 aircraft? I based my decision on the fact that it is impossible to open it to the side because of the wing, in the literature it is stated that it was broken and there are photos of Greek machines, so I relied on them. The cabin frames are already prepared and painted. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
