Bangor Lad Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 I have a Gladiator in the stash. I'll be doiing her in RAF colours but your build is a great push to get on with it! Thanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

72modeler Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Wow- are you sure that's not 1/48? Love the color scheme and the fact that it's in Finnish markings, too. Very, very realistic Finnish. (See what I did there?) Well done, sir! 👍 Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Learstang Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 A Continuation War Finnish Gladiator on skis - very nice indeed! Here's a bit of trivia most people don't know - the Soviets actually had some Gladiators at the start of the Great Patriotic War (what the Finnish called the Continuation War). These were Latvian Gladiators that had been impressed into service with the Red Air Force after the annexation of Latvia in 1940 by the Soviet Union, and repainted with red stars. They saw little if any use during the war, though, as they appear to have been caught on the ground by the initial German onslaught.

That is a beautiful photo. but I think it is one of the ex-Swedish Hawker Harts that saw service in Finland, not a Gladiator. Note the second cockpit behind the pilot for the observer/gunner.

PlaStix Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Absolutely superb result Glynn. Very impressive modelling, painting and finishing. All the more impressive for being in 1/72! Looks to be a bigger scale. Very well done. Kind regards, Stix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
