muteman Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 Hello, everyone! This time I would like to present you a scrathbuild model of a light gyroplane "Calidus" in 1/72 scale. I wanted to have a little rest from more "serious" projects on something light and at the same time unusual, so I tried not to immerse myself in the model, I just enjoyed the process. 32 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitfire31 Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 What a lovely 1:48th… Say what? 1:72nd? Amazingly clean and convincing modelling. I almost took the two top pics to be reference photos. Bravo! Kind regards, Joachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very impressed by the crystal clear canopy and all those fine details in 1/72. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
