Mirek O 655 Posted April 16, 2020 Author Share Posted April 16, 2020 HI, some news: https://www.ipmsnymburk.com/forum/viewtema.php?ID_tema=40789 Today - April 16th was exactly 50 years when the first Czechoslovak plastic model - Aero L-29 Dolphin - was presented to the public at the Consumer Goods Fair in Brno at the Kovozávodů Prostějov stand. By the end of 1993, more than 1.5 million kits of this type had been pressed from the original forms from today's perspective unreal! And symbolically on this anniversary day we bring information about the first 32-second model of the company Kovozávody Prostějov, which should appear on the model market in the summer. Again, it will be the model Aero L-29 Dolphin. The sprayed kit is prepared in cooperation with the company HpH / Infinity Models and the basis is based on the previously released resin kit of this manufacturer. So we can look forward to a great surface in the style of HpH models combined with a lot of detail. The beautiful picture on the box was painted by Jaroslav Velc and symbolically closed the line of the original Kovartavers Prostejov boxart from the 70s-80s, because only the model L-29 Dolphin was sold all the time with the original drawing of Mr. Balous. Inserted poster with the title image should be part of the kit. In this thread we will continuously provide information about this model.

crobinsonh 814 Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 That is great news. Will there be an injection moulded version of the most beautiful twin engine aircraft of all time? The Hornet and Sea Hornet. Best, Learstang, Out2gtcha and Kagemusha 3 Link to post Share on other sites

crobinsonh 814 Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Brian I would agree that the two together are the most beautiful twin engined aircraft. I do have both from HpH - but I am not sure I can face the task of getting the parts off the resin castings. IM would be much easier. Out2gtcha 1 Link to post Share on other sites

dutik 4,126 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 (edited) Any idea how Infinity models will handle the Helldiver pre-pre-orders caused by the homepage while under development? These are a few hundreds, given the counter before the homepage went offline. Regards - dutik Edited May 18, 2020 by dutik Link to post Share on other sites
Mirek O 655 Posted May 19, 2020 Author Share Posted May 19, 2020 When all will be ready you can order it from HpH shop or thru some distributors. Kagemusha, Martinnfb and Jan_G 3 Link to post Share on other sites
dutik 4,126 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 That's fine. But my question is more about the money paid with the pre-preorders. Regards - dutik Link to post Share on other sites

nmayhew 1,853 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 (edited) as someone working on the Trumpy P-47, and more importantly someone who knows next to nothing about the R2800, have they got this right for the Helldiver? i have found it really difficult to get a nice simple (with pictures!) guide which matches engine variants to aircraft for the R2800, especially as a number of the engine pics appear to be mis-labelled. Need someone like @Juggernut maybe? PS I know you can't see a huge amount inside the the cowling, but the detail on the engine looks like it's 1/48 bit disappointing Edited June 16, 2020 by nmayhew Link to post Share on other sites
