Lovely model, I have one in my collection.

Thanks! It's a beautiful family of airplanes and deserves to have their place in a modeling collection, I believe.

Hi lads,

This is the second kit finished this year. A really lovely kit, it was a quite straightforward build. I still don't like the way the gun blast tubes ended up looking, though, they should be smaller. But the sole thought of ungluing them gives me the creeps.

Enjoy the pictures!

If you'd like to, and with No.1's permission, here are the links to the building process and a little background on the plane.

It's all naming conventions. And do you know what happens with naming conventions? They're here to give a sense of lgic to something that's not. For fart's sake, noboy really knows where they're coming from. And names come and go, in the end. To have such an argument in a modeling forum is just like to declare that europeans are not so advanced into understanding each other, nor being willing to. Which is a real shame.

Well, I guess I'll return to the forum when people come down from their ivory tower and agree to have a modeling forum again and not a political mardi gras of non sense.

How about a dutch or russian machine? Do you happen to have any of those Blue Rider decal sheets? May be a lithuanian machine?

New one:

Looks every bit a He.46, surrounded by a Breda 20mm gun, several german SC bombs and variable pitch propellers... Now, when it comes to markings, you can kill me. I'd saiy british trophy of war. But a He-46 in Africa? Another mistery.

Hey guys

How are things coming around here? I've watched most of the updates and there's some serious building going on! Great!

I finally finished the Se.5a from Roden in 1/72. Lovely little kit. Hope you like the pictures.

It was a really great build. Now, I have to fix the brazilian Waco and finish some more kits

Take care!

Javier

P.S.: As I don't want to clutter the message with my dubious ways of modeling, I'll leave you here the address to my blog, with building process pictures and some nefarious comments
