Didn't Silver Wings do a few of these? I had the Demon and it was a fantastic kit....and quite large in 1/32. Think they did the Hart as well, and Montex did/do the Fury and I think the master for that was done by the guy behind Silver Wings also.

Manually making a model-master in these times is no longer enough and too time-consuming, so I decided to take this step. There is also good news - I started the whole project doing a completely new project in CAD software. And most definitely it will be our next model after Albatross C.III, which we are just implementing. Thank you for your patience. Lukasz V.P.

The model was to be made of hand-processed polystyrene with additional 3D printed parts. Due to the development of the company and 3D printing technology, the model will be re-created in the CAD version. By the way, it is already well advanced. Today, we will start promoting the model, contrary to the usual, by presenting a box with a great picture painted by Mr. Jarosław Wróbel. It will be a very large project with lots of small printed and 3D details included in the kit. We miss the aviation theme of the interwar period a bit. We will make the model appear this year at the end of July. More information in a few weeks. V.P. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
