FO_Gibbo Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Hello everyone, I was recently hunting for a Diamond DA20 model and stumbled across this paper version by P-Plane Japan. It was very fiddly and a bit different to what we are used to but I'm happy with the final product. Only regular paper and PVA glue was used in the build apart from a penny in the nose for ballast and a small piece of wire to give the main gear strength. It's a bit rough round the edges but just a bit of fun!! It is crudely finished in CTC Aviation colours and the reg. is from my first training flight in New Zealand. Next up will be a DA42 also in CTC colours (already bought from SOVA in UAV guise), then an easyJet A320 (nearly finished) and finally (?) a BA 787 later this year. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire31 Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Gives a nice impression of the real, graceful looking plane! Kind regards, Joachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapam Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Somewhat unusual, but very nice! Must admit there is some appeal to working with just paper and glue. The compound curves are the down side I guess. Certainly came up nice on this subject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

modelman182 Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Now that's a very pretty solution for something 'not yet kitted' or just plain "unavailable". Good job, sir! Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
