k5054nz Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 (edited) Holy mother of.....I had to campaign like crazy until I found someone, Igor at Unicraft, who was interested in making a 1/72 Fletcher kit. I supplied him with as many photos and drawings as I could and I think it did pretty well. And now he's done it in 1/48? Amazing! I'm speechless!!! I figured he could've given me a heads-up.... 😂 And he's put the cargo door on both sides again. Oh dear. I've just emailed him.

k5054nz Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Unicraft's website has a product page for the 1/48 Fletcher: http://www.unicraft.biz/on/fu24-48/fu24-48.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianwau Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Now have the 1/48 kit. It has plenty of potential - although will certainly be a bit of work. Yes - cargo doors on both sides (easily fixed once glued and puttied), oh and the undercarriage is supplied with retractable wheel wells. Again - easily fixed. Plenty of decal options via OldModel decals in NZ for this iconic cropduster (topdresser!). (postscript - I scratchbuilt one of these about 20 years ago. Always room for another though...) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A really polite way and politically correct description from the Unicraft products... As their resin parts are usually just like failed cookies! V.P.

This one is actually a good kick start for anyone keen on the subject - external surfaces are clean, basic shape looks good. Will draw on the modelling skills though (like a sponge). Maybe I should post a bit of a 'build' on this one? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinky coffeeboat Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 ^ or show the kit here? I'm curious to see this mysterious hard work but failed cookie kit Jeff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
