DFW T-28 "Floh" Planet Models
« on: April 26, 2017, 04:41:58 PM »
Hello, here are the pics of the Floh.
It was a pleasure to build and gave me some more experience with resin kits.
Hope you like it.























Bye,
Manni

Manni,
That's a superb job, not only as a 'build' of a not particularly easy kit but even more so due to the subject - to make it look like a real aircraft given its real life 'cartoon' shape is a masterstroke of modelling!

Yes, I like it!

I love that pilot too, he's a beautiful bit of painting

Well done Manni!

Beautifully done - although I can't say. Like it!  ;D

Manni, what a great little flea you have built. I love it very much from the wingtip down to the wonderful base and the clever idea to present the type sign. And a great pilot too ... it is a Kellerkind figure, isn't it?

Manni,
    Very nice work, you've made a "butt ugly" aircraft into a really beautiful model! Great presentation as well.
Cheers,
Lance

I particularly like the lucky mascot - I am sure the pilot needed that! The name on the board is a unique way of presenting the subject too. The finish is just so convincing - brilliant all round.

Veile Greusse.

Bravo, Manni!  I never thought the "Floh" could look so good.  Beautifully done, my friend!
Cheers,
