keefr22 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 That's not something you see every day - especially as well built, finished & weathered as well as that!! Stunning model!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oddball Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 That's beautiful! Really stunning work mate, such an ungainly looking bird but what an excellent job. I especially like the aerial wire, very "in scale" which is sometimes hard to pull off in that scale. Odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOCKNEY Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Hi Vags That sir is a cracker and no mistake, have to agree the weathering look completely real and appropriate. Can I ask why you chose this particular aircraft, with such unusual markings ? Cheers Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire31 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Well now. That is a stunner! It has that 'just right' look and all the strue detailing and discreet weathering lends it an almost unbelievable finesse. A work of art. Kind regards, Joachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vags Posted June 26, 2014 Author Share Posted June 26, 2014 Hi Vags That sir is a cracker and no mistake, have to agree the weathering look completely real and appropriate. Can I ask why you chose this particular aircraft, with such unusual markings ? Cheers Pat Hi Pat, I chose it simply because I like it very much. It is a flying boat and a very unusual one = "lethal" combination ain't it? Especially if you embroider it with unusual markings, hence the Spanish Civil War livery. In general I always try to build unusual models because I have been in the "business" for too long (since 1989) and have seen too many Spits, Bf-109s, F-16s etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bordfunker Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 That is a beautiful looking build. Always good to see some Spanish Civil War subjects modelled, as it often gets forgotten. Karl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
