Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
I hadn't thought I'd be posting any updates so soon, but the airscrew came together rather quickly so I decided to add a few images. The details in the book/plans aren't a 1:1 version so I had to find old Air Ministry specifications for [...]
Hi all,
Back to the hobby after a long break, I decied to finished what I have started a long time ago: the L-39ZA 1/32 from HPH models.
Includes here are some work in progress pics that I took along the battle. Yes, I called it the Battle [...]
