Title: SPAD VII, Captain Charles J. Biddle, 103rd Aero Squadron
Post by: Matti on April 26, 2021, 09:07:22 PM
Special Hobby 1/48 scale, Tamiya & Mr Hobby acrylics. Built about 3 years ago, no locating pins and interplane struts were too long, otherwise pretty nice kit.

     Very nice Spad Matti, and I really like the display base as well. I haven't seen this scheme before and that "offset" dorsal panel is a neat feature.Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,
Lance

Gorgeous SPAD Matti! I had worked on this kit years ago when it was released so I know it took a lot of work to get it finished! Very well done.

Great work, Matti -

I know from experience Special Hobby kits need a bit of extra work so well done!

That is super Matti. I too like the base - simple but a very effective way of displaying a super model.

Beautiful SPAD! You can never have too many of them.

Very nicely done.  I like the scheme and the markings.  As Lance mentioned the offset dorsal panel is a nice touch and a real eye catcher.

This is a beautiful build Matti!

I love the weathering on the engine compartment and the exhaust.
