Brewster Buffalo 1/72 Matchbox


Recommended Posts

The old Matchbox model, which like most of their models, represents relaxation for work. Although my box is from 1979, the decals were top notch. I am satisfied with what has been achieved, the colors are Model Master and Humbrol. I also plan on a Buffalo with Finnish markings, just a Hasegawa model. Here's the picture.

Hi,

What a fantastic job you've made of this classic kit! Superb!

I had one of these as a child, and made a bit of a hash of it. Recently, I managed to pick one up cheaply for a nostalgia build. Your model is inspiring me to open it's mangled box and start building!

Thanks for sharing and for the inspiration.

Kind regards,

Mark

Many Matchbox kit look kind of dorky when you shake the parts out of the box, what with those colours and all…

 

But when built up by someone who knows what he (or she…) is doing – they come out looking really good and surprisingly (?) accurate.

 

Excellent work with this cute li'l Buffalo!

 

Kind regards,

 

Joachim
