discussion Christmas has come early! Revells Icons of Aviation German Veteran aircraft set

[Guest]

This is a really nice big box of goodies. Got it so I could have the Heinkel He177 along with the Fock Wulf Fw 190 A-G and the Messerschmitt Bf109 G-10 as a bonus. You also get a set of acrylic paints glue and a brush so its better value then trying to get the He 177 on its own.

Should keep me busy for a little while before the big day. Also got myself a tank for later on but first of all it will be a build of the He 177 let the fun begin :cheers:

Hi Mark,I used that set as the basis for a diorama a little while ago.

The big Heinkel is a very nice model indeed. The Fw 190 builds up nicely and is a nice little kit. The Bf 109 is very,very basic,I chopped mine up!

Cheers

Steve

Cheers Ole, the plane has some very nice deep panel lines which makes it much easier to get the wash in between them.

Steaming along now wheels on bomb bay loaded and those tiny little wing bits that often ping across the living room. Wood panel flooring is a blessing.

[Guest]

mobear

 

[papa 695]

A wonderful job on that Mark and some nice photo's i like the last one best too 5 stars from me

 

[Guest]

Cheers guys its a nice model to build and that last photo was me messing about with photo shop but think I will have a proper bash at using it for my plane shots if I ever get a decent camera. Going to keep this thread going for the next two planes in this kit then do a group photo of them all might be able to fit Christmas in even
