  • Homebee changed the title to 1/48 - Pilatus PC-21 resin kit by Scratchaeronautics - box art+ test parts - release in 2022

Thanks for the info Homebe!

 

Very interesting !

But at 60 Euros each you have to be very motivated.

 

Do you know if the Hobby Boss project for an injected plastic 1/48 Pilatus PC-21 suggested several years ago with

a teaser boxart illustration is definitely dead?

 

For reference, the Hobby Boss 1/48 Embraer Super Tucano sells for around 35 Euros.

 

Thanks for any info on this.

I just ordered 2, delivery definitely not before July..  so time to prepare mentally 😀

 

Keep in mind it I a resin kit, garage made, so lots of work to be expected!

Do not compare to a mass produced injection molded kit, especially from HB... for sure lot easier to build if it arrives one day! How correct in shape also remains to be seen... Edit: this refers to the HB kit!

Scratchaeronautics kits have great shape in my experience!

The document here comes from Pilatus itself ! Originally, it's a 1/25 plan. Now if he works correctly following this plan, shapes should be good, I guess.

Apples vs oranges. This is a hand crafted limited release resin kit. It's not for everyone. 

Cheers,

Just like the new BPK P-8 Poseidon kit, they've made an error with the RAAF roundels, I'm afraid... half of the roundels should have the 'roos facing in the opposite direction.

 

Bring back the old blue/white RAAF markings, I say! No room for error then. 😉
