HL-10 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 This model languished on the "Shelf of Doom" for ten years! I have finally gotten around to finishing it. It is an OOB build, apart for the Swastika. Painted with Xtracolor enamels. A nice and easy uncomplicated build (so why it took me 10 years to finish I don't know!). The Condor has always been a favourite aircraft of mine with it's graceful and elegant lines, I just haven't had much luck when it comes to building them! Thanks for looking, and a Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year to you all! Angelo 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingerbob Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Hmm, let's see, can we squeeze any more drag onto this airframe? 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorby Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Lovely job! It's always been one of my favourites as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbudde Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 (edited) The Condor is also one of my favourites for the same reasons. A very nice model you have made. But I never would buid one with that ugly antennas, which spoils the sleek look massive imho. So my version is the C-4, probably caused the old classic Revell with their cool boxarts Edited December 17, 2017 by bbudde 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thevid Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Revell new version? It looks wonderful. Lots of hardware hanging from it. I have several of the classic 1960s Revell Condor. One day! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Natter Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 A nice easy build? From an old Revell kit? Yours must have been the only one, and you have done a masterful job with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pizzapaolo Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 That’s the sort of model that gives you nightmares if you try to move it 😀 so many bits sticking out of it. Great job though.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RidgeRunner Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Oh yes, I love it! I built this when I was a lad... Many, many years ago! It wasn't anything like yours. A great model, mate. Martin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HL-10 Posted December 18, 2017 Author Share Posted December 18, 2017 Thanks everyone, I'm glad you like her! Natter, "A nice easy build? From an old Revell kit? Yours must have been the only one, and you have done a masterful job with it". The model is from Revell's new version of the Condor and it knocks the socks off the old kit in every respect! There is some very fine interiors, with options to leave roof panels loose to see it all, and you can model the engine cowls open to show off the engines. No more rivets or raised panel lines either. In all it is a lovely kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
