Title: New - 1/72 AEG D.I & Schütte-Lanz D.III by Choroszy Modelbud
Post by: enathan on April 17, 2022, 03:27:11 AM

Two kits of German fighter prototypes will be released by Polish resin kit manufacturer Choroszy Modelbud, the AEG D.I (1917) and Schütte-Lanz D.III (1918). Both aircraft did not enter production but they are interesting subjects for those of us looking for unusual types. The Schütte-Lanz in particular was on my imaginary "wish it was produced" kit list...
The status of both kits on the Choroszy website is "expecting delivery". I'm definitely looking forward to having them.

My guess is that there is not much rigging involved?

Looks like standard late-war aircraft rigging Willem.

Unlike most Choroszy kits, these look simple.

Message from Choroszy - the new kits should be ready by the end of April.
