    Hi Jerzy!!! It's a real pleasure to know you remember me JAJAJAJAJAJA... >Also a nice pleasure to greet you. THE LINK you have posted above is the one to follow anyone who wants to build a Guatemalan Peashooter. There are also a Silver scheme that the birds were using in the last years of service, and both of the last survivors are now in USA Museums still in flying condition. Yes, these little bird were the very first pursuit aircraft our Guatemalan Air Force had and came here by a little rare route. These aircraft were rotting in Panamá Canal Zone and one of our Generals asked for and was ganter with them. They arrived in this green that were used by USAAF birds at that time. And yes, they were still flying so late here until were relieved by the F-51 D Mustangs that came in 1954. AND YES TWEENER>: Congratulations for the way you have done a great job with this little gem.- The squadron emblem is the God Mercury, that were chosen because these were the highest speed bird of all the Guatemala Air Force had at this time. Cheers, Luis Alfonso

    Hi again Roman: Congratulations for the nice build you have done with this little beauty!!! Have watched the build carefully and really liked the way you gave done the job here, really a very high dexterity exercise. Liked a huge lot the way this little jewel looks in every sense, and impressed so much to me that have dug into the stash to retrieve some little kits from Airfix that by one or another reason I have preserved, and think it would be time to try my hand with them. Seem this build could be the most direct fruit of your job here. Thank you very much for sharing, Cheers, Luis Alfonso

    Hi My Friend Roman!!! Congratulations for this new Masterpiece you have added to the shelves!!! Have watched this bird and was thinking that you have been feeling nicely out of your comfort zone, as all the non-German related builds look great. In this one I liked a huge lot the way the paint looks and the fine weathering you have applied, all the build appearance is great. I am thinking in add one to the stash as my country’s air force had one used by the transport service becoming the very first Cessna aircraft in the inventory. BTW, Have you chosen the next subject??? Keep on an go ahead with this nice builds Man!!! Thank you very much for sharing!!! Cheers, Luis Alfonso

    Hi My Friend Roman: Congratulations for this new masterpiece to shine in your shelves!!! This subject detail is impressive and the way you have handled it was very good, taking all the beauty this kit can be extracted by an expert. Like a huge lot the paint job you have done and the overall details like the beautiful ladder you have added and the other things. The paint job is superb and the soft weathering process really well done. Nice to watch unusual subjects from your bench, was wondering which one would you be picking up from the stash to make us thinking in go modeling your way. Thank you very much for sharing, Cheers, Luis Alfonso

    Hi My Friend Roman!!! Congratulations for the job you have done with this beauty!!! This build is a nice surprise to me as is out of your wonderful comfort zone normal prop kits. Really was watching the job and can say you have done a perfect wonderful job here with.This old but beautiful kit. Have in stash one old Lindbergh kit as two engine variant and two of the DML four engined variant that came to me given by a modeler going out of the hobby at very cheap price...seem nobody here wanted it but the two engine variant is the most popular, but will look what to do one of these days thanks to inspirational builds like this one you.displayed here... Thank you very much for sharing, Cheers!!! Luis Alfonso

    Hi My Friend Roman!!! Congratulations for this new Masterpiece!!!

Have watched the nice craftsmanship you had put in this build and seem you got back with renewed energy, seem the quarantine is making good time for modeling to you. Keep on and go modeling!!! Thank you very much for sharing!!! Cheers, Luis Alfonso

    Hi My Friend Roman!!! Nice to watch this impressive Black Widow...Congratulations for this nice masterpiece!!! Have watched the nice way how this kit was built and contrast with some appreciations about this kit I have heard about the difficult to put it together, but seem you have had no difficult to complete the build as usual. The only thing that surprises me, is that as you have been always a little out from the mainly Me 109's and british subjects, with Mustang exceptions in your shelves, that you have took this subject, but anyway, have performed brilliant with it. Was wondering something like...what about other so rare, for your modelling preferences, kits to show us???? Keep on and go modeling as more as you can, and keep our tastes well sweetened with every build you can show here. Thank you very much for sharing!!! Cheers, Luis Alfonso

  14. Luis Alfonso
    Well, you've got it, then you'll take it away...have been looking for a nice collection of Tomahawks, Warhawks, Lightnings, Airacobras, King Cobras, Mustangs and Thunderbolts from all Central American Air Forces... so better if will be looking around in your Eldorado Stash Place-EDSP- what you can have and get ready, because as soon the collection is ready will be shared with you to start, as a squared flag, the run for the most nice and fine collection of warbirds and as nicely you said:Kempen will be turned in the most beautiful wardbird capital city here in the deep heart of Central America!!! Keep on and Go ahead!!! Cheers, Luis Alfonso

    Hi Uncle Mario!!! Congratulations for this wonderful pair added to your masterpiece shelves!!! I have watched the nice finish of both birds and realty enjoyed the great result you have obtained after this lengthy build with all that mishaps and progresses, all the very best result of the idea in the wonderful Kempen AFB landscape!!!. Really I watch you have captured the real feeling of both builds and now that you have enjoyed piston props from central America, what about a nice Guatemalan FAG Mustang??? Or better, what about a nice collection of Central American Mustangs from Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua and Costa Rican birds???... Without a doubt it would be a nice power force together in one place. Thank you ve5y much for sharing, Cheers, Luis Alfonso

    Hi Uncle Mario!!!! Congratulations for your wonderful build!!! Just a fine build of this little kit, without a doubt you really know how to take the very best of any model to change the poor raw material into a masterpiece. I thought the Mistercraft kit has had a bathtub and nice seat but seem is a copy of the old but nice KP kit with just engraved detailed surfaces, so was thinking in take the tools and go ahead with my old kit. Have watched there are many Pakistan Air Force camouflage patterns to choose and getting a little inspiration would be a nice addition to my small built kits collection. Thank you very much for sharing!!! Cheers, Luis Alfonso

    Hi My Friend Roman!!! Congratulations for this nice masterpiece you showed us here!!! Think you have got the right flavor of the patched subject you depicted here, think the painting stage was highly laborious and also very enjoyable as you did it. I liked the way the bird looks, and even though is a rara avis reflects all the feeling the people rushed many of their aircrafts towards battle again. I liked a huge lot the soft and very well done weathering here, there and everywhere possible. That nice job invites me to try my hand in my current build subjects. Thank you very much for sharing!!! Cheers, Luis Alfonso

    Hi My Friend Roman!!! Really happy with your wonderful results, so think this last year, on the contrary with many people I have spoke about, wasn't one to forget to you. Nice builds that I enjoyed at all in every post, nice talkings and wonderful sources of inspiration. Thank you very much for that!!! The one who have been always grateful to you it's me, because watching those magnificent works you have done, I was keeping in any way making some progress in buildings that have been stuck since a long time ago, for sure inthie new year will be a nice production for me too, as have advanced a huge lot of models, simple model kits not as complicated or as modern like yours, but for some place one has to start. Hope soon can be sharing something here, so stay tuned and don't lose faith!!! Keep on modeling and have a nice new year and thank you very much for sharing!!! cheers, Luis Alfonso

    Hi My Friend Roman!!! Congratulations again for this new build!!! Seem you got a nice Naturale Metal Silver finishes Fever, and really like what I am watching from your bench in these last builds you have shared. In this case, like a nice colour combination in all the bird, the scheme maybe would look simple for many but for me, is great. Without a doubt, a really great effort in this great build. Thank you very much for sharing. Cheers, Luis Alfonso

    Hi My friend Roman!!! Congratulations for this wonderful!! Really have enjoyed your wonderful pics and really do justice to the build in all its extension. Love the way you treated the metallic surfaces and the lovely way you did the Invasion Stripes in this one. I was thinking in do one of this birds in french markings as remember have had more than one from the at that time cheapest NOVO brand, BTW a kit very elusive to me. Think I love to go back in time buying those antiques I have the chance to revisit my life and one of these days will show you something nice, at least forme,not as detailed as yours but with all my knowledge and effort as were thiose days builds. Keep on my friend!!! Cheers, Luis Alfonso

    Hi My Friend Roman!!! Superb build as always, great work and wonderful weathering, like a huge lot. Maybe one day will get a nice AZ bird as there arevery scarce in this side of the pond and follow all your great samples to finish with.a nice decent kit. Thank you very.much for sharing! Cheers, Luis Alfonso

    Hi My Friend Roman!!! Have watched this new masterpiece and really have enjoyed what you have done with this little gem of a kit. There are some people who say many things in favor and against this particular kit, but in any way, I think you did justice with the wonderful job in it. Congratulations for the nice looking job, liked a huge lot the weather and how it turned, and the very well-chosen accessories you have used here, just to enhance the kit’s appeal and also the great workmanship you displayed here together with the colors used and the overall finished job. Thank you very much for sharing!!! Cheers, Luis Alfonso

    Hi My Friend Roman!!! Have watched carefully this build and really watch that you have mastered The Beast!!! Congratulations for your wonderful results and the choice of paint scheme made this bird looks resplendent and exuding a great air of freshness and appearance. I liked a huge lot the way you have detailed the bird and the carefully weather you have used in this nice build. I want to remember you that “Not all that is bright is gold and not all that is red is blood”, so this kit is TOTALLY a new approach of modeling to you, and really think that for being your first effort in the resin complete kit that you have built, you succeed in every front. Maybe the kit has some problems as you have related, really think all the kits, being them mainstream, vacform or resin have them, BUT is in the “Art of being a Real Modeler” the dexterity and knowledge to master very challenge each kit gives and feel confident about what is coming next with the lessons learned in the previous build for the next. Keep on my friend and go for another resin subject, better if go after an aircraft subject!!! Thank you very much for sharing!!! Cheers, Luis Alfonso
