discussion 1 72 scale ostwind A A downs a spitfire dio.

[bazers]

Hi guys my latest build started out as a Maco ostwind A A tank kit but as I like to add an addition to the main subject I decided to add a downed aircraft.
I wanted the fuselage shot up so ,using metal foil made rips in sides (see pics) also made a new rudder where fabric was torn off and cut off various parts of plane, the rest of dio including stonework was scratch built, it was a long build but the aircraft was something new for me and I enjoyed it .
Hope you like.
P S don't know if it should be posted in the aircraft section but it did start as a military piece .
P P S the pilot survived....

Hi Barry
A clever idea very well done. The damage to the Spitfire is particularly good.
