occa Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 I wonder if they wil catch the complex shape crossing areas between the fuselage and the cowling around the leading edge wing root, MPM did not with their 1/72 scale version 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyot Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 I`d be interested in a couple of these if the price is right to make a RCAF & a SAAF Nomad. Eve a couple of each as there were some nice schemes, Cheers Tony 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mhaselden Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Looking good, Amaru. Keep 'em coming! Do you plan to release versions with both fixed and retractable undercarriage? I realize that will get messy and probably require entirely different wings. If you're just doing one of the 2, then my vote goes to the retractable undercarriage version. Cheers,Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhaselden Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Out of interest, I found this great pic of an Iraqi A-17 flying under a bridge (possibly in Baghdad). Shame the aircraft can't be clearly identified...but what a great photo!

AmaruTG Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Hello gentlemen if you check our Fb page you will see hints that evidence both fixed and retractable landing gear versions are being worked on. Currently we are finishing correct volumetry so we can work specific versions from there. Regards Amaru in Lima 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhaselden Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 That's great news, Amaru. There is a surprising number of different markings options available for an aircraft that was produced in such relatively small numbers. Really can't wait to see how this kit turns out.

SleeperService Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 What a lovely looking aircraft that I never knew existed an hour ago. I love that Iraqi shot.

mhaselden Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Homebee, Thanks for keeping us updated on developments. I'm watching this one VERY closely. Like Christian, I'm in for at least a couple of these. Can't wait to see the plastic. Cheers, Mark 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
