Stanley Ipkiss Posted January 15, 2012 Author Share Posted January 15, 2012 Hello! Another actualization. I've almost finish right flaps. I also changed a little bit a lower gunner compartment (hatch place) to make it look more like in original plane. Few more hours and I'll finish right wing. Dave! Ailerion is not glued yet Cheers Stan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kev67 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Amazing work, love all the small detail you have added, if only I had Photo etch to do my flaps of my Varsity would of made it allot easier for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgp000 Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Well - looking at your great build I just ordered the interior PE I have to admit I can't imagine how the fine "net" of rib detail would adhere to the sidewalls on my build without the superglue bleeding through What are the colors you've used so far, and can you share your ideas about the elusive Polish khaki? Any paint equivalent, FS code, other reference? Something I've noticed - in the original Mikro 72 version of the kit there is a station of a radio operator in the middle of the fuselage spine with a seat on one sidewall and a large radio set on the other. Are you going to include this one at a later stage or omit it altogether? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stanley Ipkiss Posted February 5, 2012 Author Share Posted February 5, 2012 Hello! There are some changes since last time. I've managed to make my own vacu nose. I had to make it from two pieces to achieve good result. Now it's prepared for painting and one half is already glued to fuselage. I've also made scratch bombsight - from 14 elements pgp000! For khaki I'm using two humbrol paints: 159 and 29. I mix them about 4 to 1. Four 29 to one 159. There are Pactra acrylic paints called Polish khaki I and II as well as Polish Blue I and II. Ones are for planes painted before war and twos are for war machines. I cant remember which year that change appeared... Pactra's colours aren't bad and I used them very often. Lately I decided to mix mentioned humbrols according to colour photos of our aircrafts. The radio you talking about is a mikro144 decoration There is a radio set in my model but it's much smaller and looks more like original Right side of fuselage behind pilots cockpit edge.

philp Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 This is the first kit I actually picked up aftermarket engines for. Now, if you have extra copies of the nose glass... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stanley Ipkiss Posted February 20, 2012 Author Share Posted February 20, 2012 Hello! Los is now in one piece! I fell in love with it's profile. It's a beautiful plane I must say! I'm really enjoying this model. Hope you like it too Cheers Stan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightningboy2000 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Superb building going on here! That photo etch looks really good quality, and the aircraft looks very impressive. Never really taken much notice of these before. You have really brought that aircraft out of the limelight. Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxidad Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Wow! Amazing modelling going on here. Makes my recent 1/48 scale effort of this aircraft look as realistic as Lego! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stanley Ipkiss Posted February 24, 2012 Author Share Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) Hello! Thanks for support! Los is now painted and ready for gloss cotes. After adding them it should gain more 'ife'. Now it looks flat and dull but no worries Cheers!

Stanley Ipkiss Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 Hello! Los is almost done! I've added engines and some details. Some more still to come (flaps, wheels). Gallery incoming this week Cheers! Stan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Handy Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 (edited) When I was a kid this was my second model that I built and it brings me to those beautiful years of the feverish begining with this hobby. My first model was RWD-14 Czapla which was from the same brand (it was then ZTS Plastyk). Now that brings to me some beautiful memories from my childhood. This Pzl P.37 looks great and I have few of those to build. Beautiful job Edited March 3, 2013 by Tom Handy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
