  1. Welshmodels has just released a 1/144th Pilatus PC-12 resin kit - ref. SL607R Sources: http://www.welshmodels.co.uk/SL607.html https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=pfbid02vdVqLvb49iZ5zhoMDvUGMGQrzmTtEtd2LLUVc6Yo4AKBRn5zT6ojUTQTHvmjQNB8l&id=100045734448348 V.P.
  2. Hi All, I'll be joining this GB with at least this model: Another Pilatus for me, yeah. First look into box contents: Not much news... Typical Amodel short run plastic (see more pics below), some photoetch and paint masks. Decal is nicely printed by Decograph - should work flawlessly. The box has the only one variant - so yes - it will carry Botswana registration of an airplane used by Okavango Air Rescue company. I think these guys fly two PC-12s and some other air transport as well. Close up of the sprues: Typical, a bit agricultural Amodel/Sova kit. Reasonable amount of flesh. Some harsh surfaces from inside. No cabin interior provided so I need to decide if I go a tough way of making full interior from scratch or ignore the problem and make a simpler and quicker project... I'll pause here until 11th January and make use of the time to gather more materials and decide on the cabin stretchers and seats. Cheers, Dennis
  3. SOVA-M is to release a 1/72nd Pilatus U-28A (PC-12) - USAF, Finnish AF - kit - ref. SVM-72016 Sources: https://www.hannants.co.uk/product/SVM-72016 https://www.aviationmegastore.com/pilatus-u28a-pc12--usaf-finnish-af-expected-november-2019-svm-72016-sova-models-svm-72016-aircraft-scale-modelling/product/?action=prodinfo&art=165385 Box art V.P.
  4. This is the Sova-M 1/72 Pilatus U-28A (PC-12) Draco. It is the militarized PC-12 used by US Special Forces for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR). This is my second Sova-M build. My first was their T-46 Eaglet trainer that was a truly awful kit with huge amounts of flash, poor fit, and bad right/left symmetry. I have to say that this was a huge improvement over that. There will still huge amounts of flash but the fit and right/left symmetry was much better. The only real fit issue was the wing to fuselage joint and the 3 piece wing. The wing was made up of a single lower wing and 2 upper wings with the lower wing fitting into recesses in the upper wings. Unfortunately the lower wing was much too thick to fit into the recesses and required a lot of sanding to get a flush fit. The wind screen transparency fit very will. The side windows not so much. Also included were decals containing a full set of stencils and one for the control panel, photo-etch for some exterior features and a set of window masks. The masks were of the vinyl type that on the Eaglet neither fit the windows or stuck. In this case they did both. As I was building this I kept thinking how much they had improved the quality of their work since the T-46 came out. But then I checked the dates of release of the 2 and found that the U-28A was released in 2019 and the T-46 in 2022. I guess the war has had a substantial impacted on them. I used AK Real Color RC244 Light Gunship Grey for the upper surfaces and RC249 Medium Grey for the bottom. Total build time was 12 days Next up will be a Martin P5M-1 (P-5A) using the Hasegawa kit and a Rieth Creations 3D printed conversion set. Enjoy
