Giampiero Piva Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 (edited) Loved by pilots and ground troops, the '123' was the protagonist of numerous battles and performed more than honorably until 1943-44. The Fly kit looks good, but upon closer inspection reveals various shortcomings, quite insignificant in the cockpit, but significant in other areas. The aircraft reproduced is that of the Hptm Otto Weiss, which with the II(Schlacht)/LG2 was one of the protagonists of the so-called Battle of Cambrai (May 1940). The aircraft is totally brushpainted (Vallejo acrylic colors) in 71/65, with 70 color bands applied only to the extrados of the upper wing; the SC50 bombs are those Eduard 672-115, decals XTRADECAL 72280, the windshield is a piece of suitably shaped acetate. The undersurfaces Hope you like it. Thanks for viewing Giampiero Piva Edited May 9, 2022 by Giampiero Piva error 53 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

François Escudé Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 always loved this (anachronistic ??) little bird it was so efficient ( and as you said loved by german troopers on east front) that it was planned to restart the production in second half of the war, but production tools have been destroyed at that time ... very nice build indeed, specially the engine part ! congrats !! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
