jenko Posted September 20, 2024 Posted September 20, 2024 Latest off the bench is the ICM Dornier 17Z-2 under the Eduard boxing. The aircraft depicted is 7 KG3, St. Trond, Belgium, August 1940. To you and me , the one they lifted from the Goodwin Sands and now resides in Cosford. A fairly straight forward kit but the engine assembly and attachment to the wings is interesting to say the least and could have been easier. You don't realise how big it is and how high it stands off the ground. As with most German bombers the view from the cockpit must have been panoramic. Lots of good detail there. Anyway enough of me wittering on. On to the pic's. Please feel free to comment etc. Thanks for looking. Dick 44 2 4 1 3
Armorrich Posted September 20, 2024 Posted September 20, 2024 Very nice work. I like the smooth clean finish. Excellent job all around. Cheers....Rich
dov Posted September 20, 2024 Posted September 20, 2024 Hallo Well done. This aircraft is actually wonderful. I built 2 of them once from paper in 1/33 scale! Next year the plastic 48 scale are on! I admire your clean transparnt windows! Happy modelling
kitchentable Posted September 20, 2024 Posted September 20, 2024 Yes, very nice. As just said, the transparencies really set it off. Especially when painted so carefully. Is it a feature of Eduard that clear parts look crisp, thin and so clear? It makes for a very pleasing model. Kitchentable
jenko Posted September 21, 2024 Author Posted September 21, 2024 Many thanks for your kind comments and likes. Very much appreciated. Dick
franky boy Posted September 21, 2024 Posted September 21, 2024 Nice work Dick I have one of these Eduard boxings in the stash so it’s good to see one built so nicely. James
Pete in a shed Posted September 21, 2024 Posted September 21, 2024 Great looking Dornier.. The precise work on the framing and cockpit interior is superb which I think always makes such a difference to a model. And well done in keeping the glass areas crystal clear. Pete
Fred piket Posted September 21, 2024 Posted September 21, 2024 Very nice clean work. Beautiful paintwork! Well done sir
stevej60 Posted September 21, 2024 Posted September 21, 2024 Excellent work Dick just bust reading yet another BoB book so that and this build is inspiring a suitable build.

Plastic is ICM, re-boxed and enhanced with bits by Eduard. It is a feature of ICM kits that I have - nice sharp clear transparencies...
Keeff Posted September 21, 2024 Posted September 21, 2024 That's a very fine example .... nice work! Keith ☺️
