Aurora Box-top homage....
« on: April 26, 2025, 07:32:57 AM »
I did these several years ago for a laff... Always loved box top art.
Monogram 1/4" with an Airfix 109.


















You can only imagine my troubled childhood when I discovered Zeros were never yellow and 109s were never lavender....
We can't take this hobby too seriously. (Says he who just finished the Eduards Hannover....)

Thanks,

Those models look fantastic - a great tribute to the box art. Back in the 60s I had the Aurora catalogue and still think they had the most exciting box art, and since colour references were scarce (to me) it did not matter that the Fw 190's were black and the Zeros yellow. As Lance says - that brings back great memories. Cheers!
