Skodadriver Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Outstanding workmanship in such a small scale. The Doyusha DC-8-61 is one of the few 1/200 kits I have actually built (about 30 years ago!) and from what I remember it was a gem. Advancing years and ageing eyesight mean that 1/144 is as small as I'll go nowadays. Dave G🇺🇦 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AV O Posted April 24, 2022 Author Share Posted April 24, 2022 (edited) Good evening, Thank you Dave ! However, this kit has indeed a few mistakes I realised while fiddling with the wings. More to come to complete the 1/200th collection. https://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235050503-white-tails-seeking-airlines/#comment-4273909 The whole bunch may be found here : https://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/66459-airliners-hasegawa-1200th/ Edited April 24, 2022 by AV O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
