Redboost Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Hi fellow modellers, this is the new Clear Prop I built as a "test" build as there several others are waiting in my build plan. The kit is not aimed at inexperienced what the build proved, but I enjoyed a bit it anyway. The most important is careful alignment and trial fitting. The kit was finished in the markings of Chinese Air Force as flown in 1938, and painted with AK Real Colors. Cheers Libor 39 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansReggelsen Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Uij! That's nice! You've built one of my favourite planes of all time (it's because it reminds me a bit of my self - Short, tubby and not much of a looker - but charming! ) Thanks for presenting it!

VG 33 Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 Hi Libor This is fantastic as usual. I have just received one Spanish box from a friend of mine and I am looking forward to start building her. Cheers. Patrick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redboost Posted August 25, 2022 Author Share Posted August 25, 2022 Thanks everyone for kind comments! Patrick, Jason: the Republican "mosca" is my obvious choice as well, but I guess I will wait a little for etched, especially the undercarriage covers would deserve them. Anyway, wish you good luck with yours and I'm eager to see them finished! Cheers, Libor 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete in a shed Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 A little beauty. What did the wires to the centre of the wheels do? Did they operate some sort of gear down indicator for the pilot? Pete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boom.boom Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 (edited) Beautiful Ishak! Everything is just fine and enough! I especially like the markings. Your model really inspires me to complete my Typ10 and exactly in Chinese markings. 1 hour ago, Pete in a shed said: A little beauty. What did the wires to the centre of the wheels do? Did they operate some sort of gear down indicator for the pilot? Pete The wires are for manually retracting the landing gear.
