Up until recently, the only kit of the Do-17 in this scale, was the old Hobby Craft kit, which really was not a good representation of this famous German bomber. Then came Classic Airframes, which although MUCH better, was a really tough build,[...]

Here are a few photos of the new 1:48 ICM Dornier 17 Z-10 nightfighter. This will appear in a full article in MAI in the next few months. I have to say this was not an easy build, from the engine cowling supports being totally wrong, issues with[...]

Here is my effort at the new tool Dornier Do17Z from Airfix in 1/72nd scale. It was a completely trouble-free OOB build, finished with Xtracolour enamel paints. An absolute gem of a kit. Tom

This is the Hobbycraft Canada 1/48th Dornier Do-17Z, German medium bomber. Because the earlier version had a particularly narrow fuselage, it was sometimes called the Flying Pencil. I think the Z transformed it into the Tadpole! Though the fas[...]
