TJTX Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Squirrel!!!! My B-25 is still my main focus, but I am going to get started on this resin bird. Its HPH's beautiful L-39. Ernie finally talked me into going resin. I went with the L-39 because it's a type I've flown and its always held a neat place in my heart because of how and why I got to fly it. For now I'll just be cleaning the parts and removing pour stubs. I haven't fully decided on which scheme yet, but quite possibly the one I flew. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJTX Posted December 9, 2018 Author Share Posted December 9, 2018 So far it seems to be a lovely kit, but I'm realizing MUCH more work than injection molding. I'll be that much happier with it when done. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Clunkmeister Posted December 30, 2018 Administrators Share Posted December 30, 2018 I never saw this till today, Tony. This is one big and super fast squirrel. You’ll do your normal exquisite, super clean work on this one as well, my friend. HPH kits have a built in power to amaze and absolutely frustrate you. Simultaneously. But when done, you’ll have an exquisite model of one of the world’s most beautiful jets. come to think of it, Aero Vodochody blessed us with what? 3,000 of these beautiful jets over the years? And improved versions of them are being produced today with no end in sight. And no mainstream IM kit in 1/32... Blasphemy! Treasonous! Conspiracy! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why we have no decent modern L-39 family in IM is way, way beyond my pay grade. It’s a small jet, used in every corner of the world, and is gorgeous no matter what angle you view it from 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
