Reini78 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 As all good things come in three, after the Harvard and the Saab 17, here´s my dad´s third and last Swedish subject in a row. Gonna do a Lansen, using the Hobby Boss kit. As usual with HB kits, shapes and dimensions aren´t completely correct in several areas but it looks like a Lansen, costs only half the money of the Tarangus kit and is easier to build Regarding the markings, gonn use Moose Republic decals (Swedish company, printed by Cartograf) but don´t know which scheme it will be.

There are also decals for the sidewall instruments but my dad decided to paint all the other instruments will use the kit seats DSC_0001 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr DSC_0009 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr DSC_0010 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reini78 Posted September 23, 2022 Author Share Posted September 23, 2022 cockpit tub done DSC_0004 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr DSC_0005 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr there are resin seats and a deatiling PE set from Maestro Models, the latter one produced by Eduard but not sold by Eduard both would cost 3/4 of the HB kit price, so my dad decided to use the kit seats and do some scratch seatbelts DSC_0006 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr DSC_0007 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reini78 Posted September 30, 2022 Author Share Posted September 30, 2022 slowly looking like a Lansen DSC_0001 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr DSC_0002 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr DSC_0003 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antti_K Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Nice progress on a Swedish classic (and one of my all time favourites). Does the kit contain usable parts for the air brakes, or are you going to use some after market parts? And have you decided on the paint scheme already? Cheers, Antti 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The kit contains plastic brakes with PE detail parts. I´ve read in another Lansen build thread that they are a bit too small and the shape isn´t completely correct. The only aftermarket stuff I know is from Maestro Models who offer a PE set for the brakes. Concerning the scheme, my dad decided for the first one with the nose ring. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antti_K Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 I built the Tarangus kit and created scratch built air brakes. It wasn't easy but I'm happy with the result. When PE parts later became available I thought that I took the easier way after all. I'm tempted to try my hands on this Hobbyboss kit also. Cheers, Antti 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reini78 Posted October 1, 2022 Author Share Posted October 1, 2022 as often with HB/Trumpeter kits, they are a mix of different versions found out too late that the "B" had no airscoops but little airintakes, so removed them scoops again and trying to simulate the correct openings somehow DSC_0001 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silenoz Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 Looking good like this. Nice work on the louvres. With regards to the preshade, I will test this for the first time, but a friend of mine sprays this on one side of the line only... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reini78 Posted October 6, 2022 Author Share Posted October 6, 2022 read, that when the Lansen were on the ground without running engine and hydraulic pressure, the airbrakes fell out, so, gonna display them open DSC_0005 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reini78 Posted October 12, 2022 Author Share Posted October 12, 2022 already painted it with MRP-217 Swedish Army/Airforce Olive Green 325M, but it looked way too dark so oversprayed it with a grey tone and gonna use a brighter tone DSC_0003 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reini78 Posted October 14, 2022 Author Share Posted October 14, 2022 added some MRP Olive Drab to the Swedish Olive, this will be the base tone, now gonna apply some brighter tone for a bleached out look DSC_0001 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
