Kriss Posted August 13, 2023 Author Share Posted August 13, 2023 Decal laid down, I modelled it on how the chequers were laid out on other planes. I know that no available photo shows the chequered pattern or other markings or inscriptions. I took my cue from the description of Lithuanian pilots who intercepted the Polish machine on their Dewoitine D.501. In their description, they said they recognised the Pole by the chequered pattern, and the type of aircraft was unknown to them. That is why mine only has the chequered pattern on it. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadowmare Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 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. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will also be a PZL P.7a in my collection but I also plan to acquire a PZL P.38 "Wilk" as well as a PZL P.11g "Kobuz" in 48 of course.

Kriss Posted August 20, 2023 Author Share Posted August 20, 2023 And at the end of the workshop a photo of the finished model. I know I didn't show its cockpit interior, but I only gave what was available from the manufacturer and from the extras it was only the pilot's belts for the YAHU, all in all it came out a bit empty there. But I had to finish the model quickly because it flew as a gift and now it delights the eyes of my friend. I also plan to make one for my collection, but when that will be I don't know. I now invite you to the gallery. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriss Posted August 20, 2023 Author Share Posted August 20, 2023 I would like to present another completed project of the PZL.46 "Sum" in 1:48 scale, which represents the only prototype of this machine, which took part in the defensive war of 1939. The colouring of the chequerwings is presumed, as there is no photo to prove it. Their appearance on the model is only due to the description of the capture of the Polish machine by Lithuanian pilots. 3D printed model, my first and certainly not the last, the construction was quick and efficient, the parts fitted very well and that's it for the plus. Now the downsides, I missed the bombs in the open bomb bay, a little empty in the crew cabin but I know the lack of documents for that. All in all, it's a very nice and enjoyable model and with a bit of willpower you can make a real gem out of it. And in the pictures below you can see how the PZL.46 "Sum" presents itself in all its glory. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
