topper71 Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 Hi guy's, While waiting for the decals which makes me a friend ... for my Tempest Here my new project I would like to built an Avia b 135, I like esoteric planes I look for a LEGATO B 35 for a good departure but I do not find it, a friend had a exemplar of a similar model by Zip Modelism.I moulded all parts here pics of the progress Here the finished model the first molding and sanding for a long,long time ..... I ' drilled the landing gear so give me your first impression, If somebody possesses the model of Legato AVIA B 35 I am always buy it ! regards topper71 Uilleann 1
LSP_Kevin Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 Wow, that looks like a lot of hard work mate! But I admire your dedication, and will be following along. Those wings are certainly reminiscent of a Spitfire though. Kev
topper71 Posted December 3, 2012 Author Posted December 3, 2012 Hi guy 's here the next step of my AVIA B135 conversion here the new prop I took the pacific coast hurricane and modified it and I I have made a new interlining behind the cockpit regards topper71 radial and Sharkmouth 2
Mirek O Posted December 3, 2012 Posted December 3, 2012 Oh my favorit plane. I had an idea to do it as a kit, but Legato was faster me. (I have their kit at home) Legato have AVIA B-35 first prototype. B-135 was different plane. Different wings, undercarriage and so hon. B-135 was sold only to Bulgary and production was stopped. Will look here daily.
A.Wolf Grant Posted December 5, 2012 Posted December 5, 2012 Wow, talk about scratch building. Incredible dedication to this unusual subject and I can't wait to see more. Grant.
