russ c Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Hi Everyone, just took advantage of the sun and dusted off a build from a little while back, Academys 1/48 scale Seversky P-35A Completed as an aircraft of the 17th Pursuit Squadron and flown by the Commanding Officer Lt Boyd Wagner, at Nichol Field, Philippines, 1941 Built 99% OOB with just some seat belts and a few bits of wire here and there Painted in Humbrol Enamels as usual Hope you enjoy, Thanks for looking, Russ 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmcclure Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Good going Russ - you don't see many of these built and it makes for interesting viewing. What was the kit like to build? Cheers, Roger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Roger Cheers Roger, The kit is a breeze to build, the decals are a bit inflexible but conform eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viking Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Nice one Russ, I take it that you have made it out of real aluminium? That NMF is so real. Cheers John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike DeTorrice Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Wow, this is an outstanding build of the P-35, Russ ! She looks remarkable and quite "metallic", too. This is an inspiration for when I finally get around to my Williams Brothers Seversky P-35 that's been patiently waiting a LONG time in it's box.
