Pzl 23B Karas IBG Models 1/72.


Recommended Posts

It is my last finished model. It is a lovely kit. Perfect adjustments and easy building.
I recommend.
I formulated the colours with Tamiya mixes.


Chears.

Very good result, nice to see Polish kit constructed in Brazil so well!

Especially I like your interpretation of Polish khaki, it has this bit of green hue.

Thank you Jerzy!!

 

My great-grandfather was Polish and I really like Polish aviation.
About color formulation, I used this follow process:

 

- Alclad base;

- Pre-shadow on the lines with Natoblack;

O-ZhsfJ_7sMnSB1VS_D2Ujw1GJeQa5Yzi3l7w6CJ

 

- Panels, I used this Tamiya formulation XF-52:4 + XF-3:2+ XF-51:1 + XF-2:1:

You model looks extremely good, but the photos of the steps before the final khaki layer are even more stunning!!!

The only thing which could look better is the exhaust collector ring in front of the Pegasus engine. It was unpainted natural steel in real airplane, and naturally rusty, as in, for example, Swordfish:

Wow, good tip, my friend. Thank you so much!!

This was one of my doubts that I couldn't solve in my research. I will do this in my Pzl 42 which is under construction.

Annotated tip!

Cheers!!

BTW, the P.42 kit has the wrong wings. They are the wings of a P.23A with leading edge slats. The P.42 did not have these slats. Unfortuately this cannot be corrected by simply filing them off because it is difficult on scribe in the underlying detail. You could use the wings from a P.23B kit but that is a bit expensive.
