A few years ago, I bought a model from a company I didn't know, Encore Models, on a well-known auction site. I bought it blindly, not knowing anything about it. When the model arrived, it turned out that inside there were [...]
Sino-Japanese War...1/48 Beechcraft D17 Staggerwing, Chinese Nationalist Airforce
So, here´s my dad´s latest completion.

The Stearman was a trainer in the early days of the IDF. The iconic aircraft received several schemes during its decade long service. I chose two of the more common schemes while in service.
Roden's Stearman is a most problematic build. [...]
