hadzi Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 I finished this kit today. It is easy to built, fits well. For plane I choose some points are important, spider emblem is yellow, IBG give us one yellow and one red (in the past it is red on all drawings I know, but look at pictures, looks brighter then red), Greek modellers reported that emblem is on both sides of fuselage. Second point is that P.24 have no glass in first segment of the moving part of canopy. The third point is an element of unknown purpose in the rear of the cabin, visible only on Greek P.24. I made it from a strip of photo-etched sheet. For painting, I used RAF colours Dark Green, Dark Earth and Sky Blue (in this case RLM78 match good). Afterwords I think it will be better to use Light Earth instead of Dark Earth. 43 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

occa Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Besides being precisely built your models really stand out due to the immaculate paint jobs on everyone of them, You also always chose the right amount of sheen instead of painting too matte. Excellent !!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitfire31 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 This wonderful model reminds me of Lieutenant Marinos Mitraleksis: When Italian bombers attacked Thessaloniki on 2 November 1940, Greek PZL fighters shot down five of them. Piloting one of the PZL:s, Lt Mitraleksis was pursuing a straggler, only to find that he had already used upp all his ammo. Unfazed, he caught up with his prey and chewed up its tail with his propeller. The Italian crew managed to parachute from their crippled bomber, but Lt Mitraleksis promptly landed his PZL close to their LZ, drew his service revolver and proceeded to take the four crew members prisoners. That's the spirit! The dramatic model diorama above is in the Hellenic Air Force Museum in Athens – well worth a visit! Kind regards, Joachim 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
