OK! Brilliant collection of an unregarded aircraft in an obscure service. It's interesting to see them brought to life.

 

Good to see the occasional figure too.

Thank you very much Bertie

I made a gold in competition with the one with figure. It is part of a complete diorama.

Wow, what a collection! Lovely work Alain.

 

It seems you have covered all the paint schemes from the very beginning until the immediate post war years. Brewster Buffaloes were well liked by our air force and great results were achieved.

And you also have other interesting planes in Finnish markings in your collection as well: like that Ar-196 carrying the ferry registration.

 

Cheers,

Antti

A wonderful collection Alain, I have enough for a couple of Finnish planes, now I have seen this, I will find it hard to chose just two schemes. :unsure: :)

Steve.

Thank you Steve, That's why a made a lot of the same models. If I buy a decal sheet, I don't know which one to do.

and most of the time I build all

Thank you. Well, I have 192  planes of the Finnish Air Force in 1/72 covering the Winter War and the Continuation war.

My first boss, how was Protestant Chief Chaplain of the Belgian Forces, how was also modeler,  was maried with a Finnish woman.

If you are interested, I can post them, perhaps not in one time.

Wow, that is a crazy set of Brewsters! :) I remember when I was doing my Finnish Buffalo the hardest thing was to chose that one scheme which I will do and do something with regrets on the others, the left apart. You skip this difficulty at all doing them in a massive way!

Impressive!

Superb collection of those Finnish planes. They did have good score with them, yet opponents were on a bit different level than Japanese in Pacific area.

Great theme build though!
