Spyker V.2, Scratch, 1/48

[JohnHaa]

Dear members,

 

I build this model a while ago, but I was not really satisfied with the results. There were some details that needed some more attention.

I have been very busy building my latest truck for several weeks, I thought this was a good moment for a break and do some restore work on this model.  

 

This is a less known plane so here is some more information:

And yes there is a connection with the later Spyker Sport Cars ..:-)

 

Fortunately I made a building report, sorry it is in Dutch, but the photographs tell the story well.

To compere the size, I included a Fokker C.I  ( a kind of a two- seat Fokker D.VII)

 

I hope you like the pictures,

 

Regards,

Great work again, John! You keep me learning about rare aeroplanes. That's another unique model never to be seen elsewhere.

Bravo! And a plane I've never heard of.
