Phonix D.i - MAC 1/72
« on: April 16, 2022, 12:56:54 AM »
Here's the last post from my back catalogue!
Phonix D.i, MAC 1/72.

For this one I had to make a teddy bear out of plasticene!  You can just see it on the wing tied to the strut!
Painting the wood effect for the fuselage before camouflaging it worked really well - unfortunately doesn't show up too well in the pictures!

Lovely work - how did you find the kit decals?

Decals where no problem once I’d trimmed them. I always use very watered down PVA to help them stick anyway!

Nicely done with the camouflage.  Someday I plan to build one of these.

That is a super model - the more so as it is in the True Scale and of an unusual type. What is there not to like?

The camouflage is extremely well done - as is the teddy bear!
