Post by: hadzi on November 23, 2020, 01:42:08 AM

Absolutely beautiful, Jurek. The complete trio is a pure pleasure for my eyes. So lovely, so cleanly built, so carefully for the details and colour schemes, so Polish... My sincere congratulations.

I built one of these.  They are very nice kits, but mine doesn't come close to your three.  Yours are very lovely.  You should be very proud of those.

Thank you very much, it could have been done better. I am not satisfied with the quality of the decals used for Polish markings, unfortunately you can see it and with the spoked wheels - I will probably exchange them for another one.

Thank you. To answer your question, hm... now I do a T-33 Shooting Star and Potez XXV B2. I just ordered another two Fokker D.VII from Eduard 1/72 and I found Eduard's engine set for it, I'm going to use it for the next Polish Fokker - next year? I have too many projects.

That is first class in every way. I do like the spoked wheels - and in the True Scale too!

Very neat - I especially like the trainer (but the lozenge is delightful too with its simulated fabric texture). Eduard made a homerun with these kits. Unless you ordered already, Eduard will release a double pack in January containing the brassin engine upgrade, which may be more economical than buying separately.

That's interesting who knows ...
I plan to build two more Polish machines, one Finnish, the last one has the highest priority.
