JWM Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Hi, In commemoration of 10th years of BM forum there was a GB in which we were all invited to do a model with "10" in its description. Could be even "Me 410" or any machine from 10 Squadron. My choice was Nieman R-10 - a Soviet light bomber/tactical recce machine from late 1930s. This is one of first (exactly No 72006, so 6th if catalogue number tells true) Pavla kit. Made of a bit too soft plastic. I replaced the turret by a scratch build one and changed the spinner for the late R-10 type. Here she is: The thread from build is in GB section Comments welcome Regards Jerzy - Wojtek 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sturmovik Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Weird looking aircraft, was it build out of wood? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch K Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Another very unusual subject, very nicely completed. As you know, I have a fondness for ugly aeroplanes myself, but I think this one is too ugly even for me! Thanks for sharing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mixed structure covered mostly by playwood. it was not so rare machine, with civil variant PS-5 it was dome alltogether in series of almost 500 items.

Buzby061 Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Another ugly aircraft that only a mother could love. Lovely job. Pete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazontipede Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 More wonderfully finished airborne esoterica! Great job Jerzy! I remember (cripes, it is almost 20 years ago!) back in my computer gaming days, when Il-2 Sturmovik first hit the shelves. One of the AI aircraft in game was the Neman R-10, rendered rather crudely (by their later standards) which always got a bit of a 'what is that!?' reaction from new players... Strange little beast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWM Posted May 12, 2018 Author Share Posted May 12, 2018 Very ugly but indeed, but the most ugly is u/c which looks heavy due to too large wheels. In air perhaps she had some kind of art-deco or rather futurism charm (?!) Many thank for comments Regards J-W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
