Roger Holden Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Great ! The WW I German two-seaters are a big hole in the market in this scale and have been almost totally neglected..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meatbox8 Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Blummin' eck. Kits I want are being released quicker than I can afford/ build them. Can't really have a WW1 German collection without one of these. That pale blue on looks rather pleasing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dutchplanes Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 I got one, directly from AZ/KP. It looks great!!! Sorry, I can't show pictures here. Hans 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRK4m Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 A spoon of tar to this barrel of honey - it's not first time that painting scheme of KP/AZ kit is far from historical truth. There is (and was) no place called Mokotowice in Poland and this Polish C.III is a very hypothetical specimen (no serial nor individual codes). There are several photos known of the Polish C.IIIs and most (if not all) of them have plain olive green uppersurfaces. Moreover - some of them feature individual codes and/or serials :( It's quite opposite to the AZ 7329 Lim-5 s/n 1C1023 that is shown in 3-colour uppersurface camouflage while the real plane sported FOUR topside colours. And don't try to persuade me that some other authors also show it like AZ does. The prototype is exhibited at the Polish Aviation Museum in Krakow and the man who brought her there in 1988 was... yours very truly.

Absolutely by accident I came across a photo of this 1C1023 shortly after her arrival to the Krakow museum. And I don't know about you, but I can clearly see two areas of identical grey (nose and the rear part of fin), two areas of identical tan (mid-fuselage and forward part of fin), as well as a dark olive green area around the cockpit and light forest green over the fuselage insignia area.
