Title: ICM 1/32 Stearman N2S-2
Post by: eclarson on December 21, 2022, 02:43:15 PM

Greetings all,
It's been ages since I've posted anything here as I've not built any WWI aircraft for a while but I thought I'd drop by and share one of my favorite builds from 2022.
And it's still a biplane!

So, here's my ICM 1/32 Stearman PT-13 (N2S-2) rigged with RB Productions flat rigging wire and painted with Gunze Mr Color lacquers.  All decals are the kit's.
Further embellishments include Eduard photo-etched cockpit and undercarriage details while spark plugs, ignition wiring, fuel lines, and other engine details were added from scratch.  The prop is the kit unit with the wood effect done using artist oil paints.

So sweet! Great modelling all around. Fine details added, fine rigging and delicate wash on the yellow - all contribute to a spectacular result!

Wow!!! That really is striking, the yellow stands out a bit more than PC10! :D

Your prop is so well painted I thought it was carved from wood. Great to see your work again, this is fantastic in every respect.
