Golden Age - Percival Vega Gull and DH 60T Moth Dora Wings and A-Model 1:72 As these two come from the same era of the 1930's I thought I'd combine them into a single post. The DH 60T kit was reviewed a few years ago here but I only recently got around to building it. (And I've just noticed I still need to fit the windscreens!) The Vega Gull is the new Dora Wings kit, which I could not resist due to the outstanding box art. I chose the 1:72 version (it is also available in 1:48) because I knew it would go with the DH 60T and the Airfix Tiger Moths I have already built. They are very small models, and don't take up much space. The DH 60T in 'Aeroclub De Santos' markings from Brazil. The kit instructions show it in overall red, but I found a photo showing it with much lighter wings, presumably silver. The Vega Gull in Alex Henshaw's Markings The box art that sold the kit to me! And finally, all together, Tiger Moth, DH 60T and Vega Gull. Thanks for looking John

I found five Frog/Novo bagged Gipsy Moth kits in a box so I decided to try an convert one into a "Metal Moth" Plastic strips was added to the fuselage and to the wing tips where I needed to move some ribs. With some filler and sanding it get a bit smoother.

OK, I'm in with a dh 60G from Amodel in 1/48. The most commented downside of this kit is that Amodel don't give a rigging diagram in the instructions - but that should be solvable from the web. In the box, there are three decal choices - I'll probable go for the forth option On the sprue, this kit looks great, and I must admit that I'm tempted to get one, or both, of the other Amodel dh60's (Cirrus or Metal Moths) ... but let's start simple(r)

Chaps. Are the Amodel kits any good? Rick.
