Title: PZL P.8/I Arma Hobby// 1:48
Post by: KrzysiekK on March 01, 2017, 08:19:30 PM

Hello,
There is always such a moment when you feel like the traitor:) I can confess that this particular plane distracted my WWI attention and transferred to early 1930s.
PZL P.8/I designed by great polish engineer Zygmunt Pulawski fitted with 640hp Hispano-Suiza was prospective and innovative idea of fighter design, which due to various coincidences never came into repetition work
The newest edition of resin from Arma Hobby was like Lego in the assembly. The main and most troublesome part of it was the painting as worked with metallic paints first time in my life.

One of the best PZL models I have ever seen. Those Arma Hobby kits are truly easy-buildable but you have added a lot of your own to get this spectacular result!
