    Seems from the hands of the usual Spanish group that creats those magnificent aircraft dios, this time with an interesting story ... a storch in trouble [strange is Italian?] saved by the Italian equivalent of the LRDG ... interesting apart the balance and weathering is the groundwork, one of the best renditions of Sahara desert that captures the colour and the sit of the material and people ...

    The terrain is AMAZING but there is "space" IMHO which could have been "filled" even though I understand that with an aircraft, you have some "waste" on the sides due to the wings Twisted Evil

    Just nitpicking Suspect as I said the terrain is simply REAL & is among the BEST we've seen for sure cheers

    I do not agree the space is wasted, it is very well balanced, he captured the death space of a desert, by tilting the outstretched long wings of the plane he managed to balance the death weight ... creating longitudinal lines to the base I think so far this is the best downed aircraft dio I have seen ... the usual odd jerrycan too fill the area would have been rather unrealistic! Thumbs up for him to create dislevel and texture he added that sony ridge ...


    the story as Marco pointed out might be the nit picking, the pilot's injury looks too match, but then he is adding drama ... artistic licensce ... the trio trying to pull up the storch with the measuring rods are great, have seen some other images on FB, the body language is so good ... hats off for me! cheers

    My mistake as I miscalculated the "wasted area" & also I did not notice the tilted wing was creating that "dislevel" and thus creating longitudinal lines to the base Embarassed so I ask FORGIVENESS of the modeller Sad

    Yes I agree 101 % cheers cheers cheers cheers cheers cheers cheers

    It's the angle of the foto when you see it from the front it is totally different ... this time they used all models 1/35 so no more excuses for them this Euro!

    Yes as I viewed it from above there was something missing Sad from my brains that is Laughing Twisted Evil

    Do you mean even the Storch is 1:35 Suspect ?

    Yep there are a couple of 1/35 models around, planned to be combined with armour, storch and an equivalent USA plan [forgot the name] there are also some 1/35 Helicopters, Hinds, Hues and a Chinock. Planning something?

    If it wasn't for the mix Mr Tamiya made so many years ago we would have no trouble with scales of 1/32 and 1/35 ...

    Kemm kien bla sens is-Sur Tamiya lol!

    No not planning anything Evil or Very Mad as if Sad was just SURPRISED Shocked

    But Mr.Tamiya's blatant mistake apart, I think a "mid line" is always feasable when you have "two close scales" as no two manufacturers work alike like in the evident "54mm range" of MOST pale
