Further proof that Eastern European modelers are in dire need of confinement to rubber rooms. 🙂
Is there a kit for that Boulton-Paul bomber???
Editor said on April 12, 2014
That Boulton-Paul Overstrand was the queen of the biplane display. Frankly, I’ve never heard fo a kit of this a/c, especially as the model appeared to be in 1/32 scale.
I’ll try to get some more info about it today.

The model is in 1/48 scale scratchbuild by A.Polyzos
Editor said on April 13, 2014
Just what I learned today. No kit, the Overstrand is all scratchbuilt. For 1/48 it really is a big aircraft!

That fact alone makes it even more amazing.

Outstanding modelers at this show. It would be hard to pick a winner.

All fantastic work! I particularly liked the bomber used in the cover. Can anyone tell me what it is? I’ve never seen one, but it looks like a total brute! Did it come after WWI? I also like the checker board Bristol! Why camouflage your aircraft? If you’re going to fight, clash!
Editor said on April 12, 2014
Josh, the aircraft is Boulton-Paul Overstrand, it does look like a brute 🙂 and was produced betwen the wars. Checking in Wikipedia, it came at the beginning of the 30s (!).
