Title: 1/72 Spad XI Planet Models resin kit
Post by: Stuart Malone on December 01, 2020, 05:14:49 AM

Let's see if this works.  I'm trying to share a couple of photos from my icloud pictures.

This has been a very long build.  It has spent more time on the shelf of shame than on the hobby table.  It's been a very difficult kit and my efforts have not been top notch.  The only reason it's getting done now is to test a couple construction techniques that didn't work, paint color mixes that did work, and painting with Vallejo Model Color.  The airbrushing worked, the hand brushing did not.  Fortunately, I have another on the shelf if I ever care to revisit the topic, or maybe hack it into a Spad XVI.

Seems to have worked Just Fine! Your SPAD looks awesome! We really need an injection kit of the XI or 16  ;D

Thanks guys.  I really appreciate the kind words.

I went through the vacuform kit stash thinking I had a Spad 16.  Nope.  I thought for sure Roseplane did it.  I checked scalemates and nothing turns up there.  Not a single kit at all.
