Title: Halberstadt CL.IIa (BFW) 1/48 Mirage Hobby
Post by: Jacek on August 04, 2017, 07:41:23 PM

Halberstadt CL.IIa  2875/18
2Reconnaissance Polish Aviation Squadron.
Model very difficult, nothing fits, much need to be processed by yourself.
I recommend ambitious modelers, who from a piece of plastic want to make a good model, I did not succeed  :-[
I invite you to the gallery.
Regards.
Jacek

Agree with Dave 100%, your "unsuccessful" model looks outstanding.  Congrats.   :D

Model very difficult, nothing fits,

Oops! Thanks for the warning, since I have a kit variant too.

Anyway, your model looks great, you made a nice result out of that kit!

Cheers,
Frank

Oh, my friend, you certainly did succeed in making a great model.  I built an earlier release a while back and thoroughly enjoyed it, but you're right.  It is not an easy model.  I love your rendition, especially your cdl.
Cheers,
Bud

Beautiful work!  The CDL looks perfect as well as the wood technique on the fuselage.  Thanks for sharing.

I love this forum.  Modelers say that their build did not come out good, and I'm hoping I can do a build on a much easier kit that just comes close to the quality of their build.  Excellent job on your model.

It looks like a quite successful achievement for one who "did not succeed"  ;)
Great model, Jacek. I am looking forward to see it in real!

i agree this is a hard model to build but it looks great to me. i like your fabric effect painting as well as woodgrain effect. the whole front end of this model is quite hard to get together and takes alot of test fitting.

If that is a lack of success then I will give up modelling for good now!

It may have been a difficult kit to build but you overcame all of the problems and finished it with first class painting.
