Country: | Realy good job! Maybe too clean (Messers were the dirtiest a/c ever built) but looks very nice. Could you tell us what is a scale and company of your model?
P.S.
Where is antenna link?

Country: | Yes, you are correct netsailor they are pretty clean...I built both about 10 years ago, when still in the learning curve, by the way you never stop learning!, at this time I would say that I would not revisit them to improve them or add antenna wire as they also serve as a reminder of the varing stages of learning and improving skills....but you never know... |

Country: | Wurger the kits are Hasegawa, will post some shots of the second one tomorrow night, for now one more of MT-213 and some reference shots of the actual aircraft.
Photo Credit Suomen Ilmavoimien Historia No.11 Finnish Fighter Aces
by Kalevi Keskinen, Kari Stenman and Klaus Niska.
Fantastic reference book.lots of photo's and pilot detail.
MT-213 was flown by 16.5 victory Ace Lt. Eero Juhani Riihikallio and is depicted in May 1944 in green and Black upper camo victory list indicates 3 in this aircraft, caption claims 4.5?
The second photo shows MT-213 in April 1943 still in Original german Grey(s) camo. |
