R Palimaka Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Beautiful build of a lovely and important aircraft! Thanks for sharing your build with us. It looks like the kit is a real pleasure to build and you've done a splendid and quick job of it. Can't wait to see mine show up...stuck in Canada Customs limbo.

quang Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Very life-like photos of a fine build, Dave! I guess your model doesn't carry a radio because it doesn't have antennas. As such it shouldn't have the fairing on the starboard fuselage either. The fairing houses the radio set generator flexible connector. With fairing removed Easy to correct though. Either remove the fairing, or add antennas. Cheers, Quang Jan_G 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quang Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Hi Dave, I didn’t mean to criticize your build. I’m discovering this new kit myself and learning about the real plane on the way. I just thought my input would be helpful. I’m sorry if you may find it annoying. Quang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was quite refreshing not to bother with refs and just get on with it. The khaki is wrong too... should be browner. Hataka do a laquer for Polish aircraft but I used MRP light Khaki from the Czech range but its too green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quang Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 I’m not so sure about the khaki. In most photos, it appears browner and lighter but on some others it’s green like on your example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R Palimaka Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 (edited) Doesn't take away at all from your superb build, but if you're interested... It is a little green, but there has been a lot of discussion about the Polish khaki used in the late 1930s. The restored P.11c in Krakow was meticulously restored. The colour was matched to factory original patches of overspray in overlapped joints and hidden panels. It turned out to be closer to RAF Dark Earth.

DrDave Posted March 19, 2020 Author Share Posted March 19, 2020 I've bought another one as it was so enjoyable and got the Hataka Polish laquer set for that one. Has anyone heard of any AM deckles coming out yet? quang and R Palimaka 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's encouraging that you bought another, looks like it was a fun build. In the meantime, here are a few photos I took in 2018 of the restoration in Krakow. It was such a thrill to finally see her.
