What a beauty! :goodjob:

There just is something about the planes of the period between the 2 world wars! :D

 

Cheers :bye:

Than you very much Hans. 

Have you ever seen the animated film, Porto Rosso. That is about the flying era between the wars. 

The main character is a pig, but it's a very good film. Joe

Hi Joe

 

Porco Rosso is one of my alltime favourite movies! :D

Miyazaki has the ability to make his movies magical - be it in a small japanese village with forrest deities and catbusses or amongst airpirates in the Aegian Sea in the 1920'es. :winkgrin:

 

I have both versions of Porco's planes in 1/48 scale from Fine Molds

 

Cheers :bye:

Hi Hans, I remember you now Hans, you kindly posted on my Porco Rosso when I posted it here on britmodeller.

I only had the early version of Porco's planes. But I do have the Finemolds 1/48th Curtiss Seaplane ready to build.

Excellent looking model with an extraordinary standard of finish. Well worth all the time spent polishing with Micromesh!

Thank you Nigel, I do get a bit carried away sometimes.

Great looking result, natural metal finish looks very effective.  A neat build overall.

Many thanks Knight_Flyer. Alcald gives a nice finish.

I think this is one of the best looking plane designs of the era.  Seeing it in such vivid detail I'm getting a better appreciation of it, what a beautiful model you've created here.   As an artist, I'd love to use your images as reference in a new drawing.  I could draw it in formation, solo, in combat, anything really.   Let me know if you're interested.
