PatW Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Just finished, showing the aircraft and the two smaller items that came with the kit, a Jeep and a Field Gun. The rear doors have rubber hinges so rest partially open. 32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toryu Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 That's a nice vintage build - great combination of an antique kit and modern modelling techniques. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tail-Dragon Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Very nice, what scale is it? Aurora did a number of very interesting kits in the early days of modelling some molds were so good they were taken over by Monogram. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthViper from Brazil I also remember the movie and how the others reacted so terribly when it was discovered the engineer only did "models" instead of the real aircraft. As for this rendition of the ancient Aurora kit, it is well done and you have a hard time believing it is from the 1960s. Thanks for sharing.
