Lightningboy2000 Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Always a pleasure to see your work Libor & this certainly doesn't disappoint. The extra work with the riveter is excellent and helps with the subtle weathering. Keeping the standard up in 1/72 to aspire to as usual!

TonyOD Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Superb job! I am in awe of your canopy work in particular. These new Airfix Bristols do look like lovely kits, I've just got hold of a couple of Blenheims and a Beaufighter and one of these will surely be coming my way soon... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobo Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Incredible build Libor; one of your best ever. I hope a build article will appear in a future Valiant Wings book. What technique did you use to create the underfuselage formation lights? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehnz Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Wonderfully done Libor, the WOW factor is off the scale mate. I'd like to echo what Joachim, @Spitfire31 said about the photos, beautifully taken & just enough to show this to advantage. A great example for others.

Sky Keg Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Incredibly beautiful and accurate. A true masterpiece. I might have to make the trip to see your collection in person someday Libor. Fantastic!!!!! Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72modeler Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 So, when are the guided tours of your collection, Libor? What a magnificent model- everything the others have said goes double for me, especially the weathered paint. While I don't think I can ever come close to your ability, you sure have given all of us something to aspire to! In my opinion, the Beaufort has to be one of the very best of the new-tool 1/72 Airfix kits, and your work has taken it to another level.

Hobo Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Libor, Since there is so much interest in your builds, is there a chace you might produce a DVD video of one or two of your builds? Perhaps produce one video on a twin engined aircraft like this Beaufort and another video on a biplane so that we can observe your complete rigging process from beginning to end. I'm sure they would sell well. JM Villalba has produced two videos showing his techniques and they are excellent - I've learned so much from them. He included subtitles in many different languages to explain what you are watching. You decide which language you want before the video starts. Just a suggestion. By the way, will this Beaufort model appear in a future Valiant Wings book? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
