Eduard Royal Class kit, decal N
My 9th 109 (does that mean I have to build 100 more? Well the stack of unbuilt kits in the corner of my cave may suggest that, but with a small diversion now and then to other planes and eras).
The matter in [...]
In order to get a build done fast, I bought the Airfix Emil. The plan was to get it done fast(?) and OOB(?)
OK – things took a turn at the very beginning of the build. Having been spoilt by eduard 109’s the Airfix item is a bit simple [...]
