RidgeRunner Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Dan, You've wrestled that particular ugly duckling in to a very nice build - unusual, nice marks and build and 1/72! Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danntheman Posted June 21, 2017 Author Share Posted June 21, 2017 (edited) Thanks for that, ugly but beautiful I think. It was hard graft all the same.The markings are for hope I spell this right, Marinefliegergeschwader 5 , Bundesmarine Kiel 1985.

RidgeRunner Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 That's right. MFG-5 operated all the Navy Do28s. Marin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Mc Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Nicely done. The kit is a lot older than 1997. I think Matchbox originally released it around 1974. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martian Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 All I can add is that it looks great from where I am sitting. Maybe some aerials might help a bit? Martian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you like, as usual all comments and suggestions welcome. That's a fantastic model of an aircraft I've always thought attractive. I did this Matchbox kit as a young-un (late 1970s/very early 80s), so I'm feeling very sentimental now. Regards, David 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
