Huffman Model 81 USAAF WW2 bicycle - 1/72 scratchbuilt


Recommended Posts

I am a fanatic air enthusiast and model airplane builder so I do not really belong here. My latest model is a UC-64A Norseman which I decided to put on a base with a grassy ground layer along with "something else" other than the well-worn figures, barrels, Jeeps, pets etc. A bicycle sounded like an original idea so after a brief and disappointing reviewing of all the available kit options I decided to scratch built one. It is not armor but it is not aircraft either so I decided to put it here. I hope you will enjoy the photos :

I, at first, thought this was a picture of your model and was completely blown away..

But then realised it was a picture of an actual bicycle and so was even more blown away when I saw what you were able to come up with. I cannot beleive you scratched that in 1/72!!! I wish I had as much talent as you left pinky finger!!

AMAZING JOB!!!!!!
