Title: New Halberstadt CL.II kit version by Mirage 1/48
Post by: Bughunter on May 29, 2021, 06:31:08 AM

There is a new version of the Halberstadt CL.II by Mirage Hobby in 1/48. Created this year, available now.

The pictures says more than words:

The PE sheet is a little bit smaller now, but all the important part seems to be included.

I really like the "leave for the decorative wreath" sheet!

I have build a older kit version this year and one can build a nice model using this box
https://forum.ww1aircraftmodels.com/index.php?topic=12016.0

Seems to be a nice addition to the available kits in 1/48!
You should by that box! Even rigging material is included.

Does anybody know a source of the original "Glück 100 .." photo (see the little one in the second image) with the decorative wreath?
Have not found it in Datafiles 27 and 157.

Cheers,
Frank

 Perhaps if enough modelers request Pheon Decals to produce their 1/32nd scale early and late Halberstadt CL.II sheets in 1/48th scale, Rowan will make them available. I would like to see other decals sheets only made in 1/32nd scale reduced to 1/48th now that Wingnut kits are rare and expensive.
