Right, Nordic GB is here again and it's a perfect excuse to build finnish planes for the rest of the year
My summer has been real bad when it comes to modelling - I have tons of unfinished builds (and project logs ) but maybe I will get my mojo back during this GB.
Now, this is probably not the mojo-build so maybe I won't start with this one, but I'm still planning to build it eventually.
Here it is, Valmet Vihuri by Broplan in 1:72
Yes, I have been warned
Inside of the box.
It's looking bit rough đ
Vacuform canopy. Second piece - just in case. Good.
My plan for this GB is to build HÀvLv 13 planes (Fighter Squadron 31), It was located here in Pori after the WW2 - which just happens to be my home town. It says 'Tre Bröder' on the side. Plane was funded via donations of three brothers - Vilhelm, Gustav Adolf and Bogislaw Klingspor - hence the name 'Tre Bröder' - three brothers.
Top photo is of the VH-9 just after it arrived in Pori brand new. Below photos after it's accident in 4th of july, 1955. While it would be interesting to do the brand new model, but I think I will model it bit later in life but sometime before the accident.
