Special Hobby Lloyd C.V 1/48

[Alexis]

My next adventure is this neat little bird and perfect company for the Hansa on the shelf now . Being very keen on the out come of my last wooden wonder I want to give it another go and see where this one takes me . I have no info on this type so not sure on the level of detail which will be added , just want an enjoyable build

Terri, so my question, what's next, is already answered.
There are two variants of this kit, yours from 2002 is Series 46, and in 2018 the kit was released again with light modifications as Series 82 (different engines and radiators). I have both kits in stash

May be you want to go the hard way and try to plate the whole fuselage and wings with real wood, as Chloe Plattner has done some years ago. Thst is a beautiful model!

I'll take a seat for this one Terri. I have the 1:72 kit in my stash, actually one of the very first kits I bought when I got back into the hobby!

It was a  (flat f  k friday) type this into your web browser  pissed myself laughing !!! at work today and I needed some bench time to clear the mind . I start getting the parts ready for clean up and go over the detail , resin bits aren't overly all that bad , but they are very basic and some very thin and care will be needed on cleaning this up . I don't like the resin gun so will opp for Tom's Model Works PE one . Only the stock part will get used ...maybe .

Thanks Rick , made a start on getting some the parts painted . The engine parts I sprayed Tamiya semi gloss black in prep for the metal shades coming next . Cockpit parts got sprayed Tamiya Wooden deck tan . There are no colour call outs of the parts so will have some online checking into this .
