[Eduard] SE.5a 1/48
« on: February 22, 2019, 02:17:54 AM »
Hello

Today, I'm giving you the final photos of my SE. 5a from Eduard at 1/48. It was the mounts of Lieutenant Franklin of Squadron 56 in March 1918. This pilot had 4 victories to his credit. The assembly was without any worries.

Nicely done Gérard,

It’s a super kit isn’t it?

What a super model! The ailerons give it a touch of realism, but the overall finish and rigging and really excllent.

Oh yeah, really nicely done!
This invites me to select also a 4-blade for the second SE.5a of my Royal kit.

Thanks for showing!

Cheers,
Frank

Very nice finishing. The vignette is a good complement to the model.

Truly lovely and the base really brings it to life!
Cheers,

Very fine work on this model with great final result. The only thing which makes my eyes aching are those over-exaggerated rib tapes. IMHO even Roden in 72nd scale have them more realistic! One thing for Eduard to improve.
