Today, I shall make mainwing and subwing basic shape. I guess the fuselage shape is difficult but other portion is easy to make than the HP42. One wondering point is shortage of pictures online. V.P.

Homebee Posted July 17, 2019 Author Share Posted July 17, 2019 And after the L.17 Scylla, the Short S.17 Kent. Source: https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=1042625312600466&id=100005590215920 Quote As a Scylla conversion kit, Short Kent will be necessary. Because the sales of the Scylla will be worse than the HP42W. Like YS-11 and HS748, another conversion is necessary I guess. I can reuse mainwing and subwing CAD model!! V.P.

One Man Model Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 When ordering, please send me a private message!! I will be able to begin prototype fabrication within 2 weeks! Scylla sales will be worse than the HP42W's. So I will release the Kent as a conversion kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Man Model Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 I will release in both 1/48 and 1/72 scale. 1/48 scale detail is just 1.5 times larger ver. of 1/72. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About as big as a 1/72 B-52. I have the 1/72 scale one, and that's big enough. Keep an eye on the Review page, Julian is doing a review of it. Very impressive. Don't be apprehensive over these kits, they are excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkoZG Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Has anyone ever bought any of these kits? I would like to hear first hand experience from a customer in terms of parts surface, decal quality (must say I am concerned they look more like stickers than decals), to which glues does material respond etc. End user impressions.

Julien Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 I have seen the 1/72 HP.42 and the overall quality of the printing was pretty good, better than expected. Kit fuselage was split in a way not to produce a seem which you had to sand away. I think the decals are vinyl stickers? maybe @bentwaters81tfw can chip in as it was his kit I got a look at.

TEXANTOMCAT Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 I think this whole series is fascinating! Where will the hobby be in ten years! I wonder how easy it is to sand the plastic though - some of the parts seem to be ABS which I'm familiar with and the rest is some form of biodegradable plastic called PLA which I had to google. Amazing stuff though! TT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Man Model Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 This is 1/72 Scylla test model I have finished today. As for building skill, I'm in terrible level. This is just my built example. Kent will be Scylla conversion. I will reuse mainwing, tailplane and fin data. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
