Great box-art! Reminds me of Steve Anderson's art for WnW.

Perhaps Lukgraph would sell you some sets of floats for other projects?

Yes, the long wait is coming to the end.
I have heard the kits will be available in 6 weeks - waiting for the PE frets.
And the boxarts are the story of their own - painted by one of the most talented Polish aviation artists - Mr. Jarosław Wróbel. IMHO they are a lot better than the WNW's ones. The Polish one is now adoring my laptop display background.

I just checked their website for prices ... and those prices are killers, not targeted for the average income modeler, many potential customers will be scared away .

Yea, I'm one of them. I went to their website to order it and discovered with shipping it would be over $200 usd. I just can't justify that right now.

Looks like a really nice kit !

It is one I will pass on , I have one in 48 scale and even at that size it is big aircraft . Not sure about the esin struts , do these have a wire core ?

Not that I would do any advert, Alexis, but I suppose you have FF33E in 48th scale and that was much bigger than L. And yes, all the struts in Lukgraph models are reinforced with solid steel wire. And so are the wings, to prevent sagging in time.

Wow nice!

I wonder if these floats would fit on a Rumpler?!

I see they have a premier edition with clear doped linen and wood grain decals. Is it worth it? Their decals any good or should one stick with Aviattic decals? I am not trying to start anything just curious about their decals.

As far as I know it is their first venture into such decals. They have to be assessed yet
