Hello!
This model was finished on the first half of 2019, and was published on the June issue of Airfix Model World.
It`s the Special Hobby offering of the C-212 Aviocar.This build had a special impact in me. These Aircraft saved a lot of lives on the archipelago of Azores (were i live) transporting patients from the smaller islands to the ones with hospital.
There are even some Azoreans born aboard the Aviocar!
The kit is well detailed and the decals stunning. The presence of putty on the lower surface of the fuselage is mainly due to a mistake of the modeller.
I used paints from the Vallejo and Mission Model Paints ranges.Hope you like it!

Hi Jennings!
Although the kit fought me hard, in the final taste is very rewarding!
Thanks for sharing this memory!
Cheers!

Sorry for the late reply!
I didn`t. There wasn`t much rivet work on the front fuselage... thankfully.
A solution might have been the Archer resin transfers...
Cheers!

Hello!
Here are some pics of model that was built last year, but was waiting for the right moment to come out.
This is the well known Special Hobby kit, with Vallejo Model Air Vallejo e Mission Models paints.I want to leave a warm Thank You to a fellow Portuguese modeller - Paulo Lopes, for the inspiration provided by his work on this kit, which got me through - Obrigado!
Here is a link for the detailed construction and painting process of the Buckeye.

Hi!
Thanks a lot for the feedback!
Very nice model! I have the "D" version in the stash, so I'm also looking forward to build it. From checking the overall model, I guess it will be easier to build and nicer detailed then the old Dragon kit.
I also have the Dragon Kit.
It looks really good on the box, but the reviews... well... when it becomes a classic...
Cheers!

Hi!
Thanks for the feedback!
Hi Jose, I checked the link-very well done!
Being an engine fan, is that an after-market unit?
Hi Tom!
The engine is part of the kit. ICM actually provides two units if one chooses to open both the engine nacelles.
I think they are a very good starting for more detail.
Cheers!

Wow! Excellent! Did the ring sights for the MG15 come with the kit?
Gaz
Hi Gaz. The ring sights were sourced from the exterior detailong set by Eduard.
Holeeeeeeeee Schmokes!!!!!!!!! I was wondering how this kit built up and man am I NOT disappointed!!! Truly awesome looking replication!!
Hi Mustang! Appart from some glitches, this model builds up very well!
