sabresandhunters Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 This Nicaraguan C-46 is named after the river Wanki. I have just finished the construction of this model, one of 4 in near finished state I want to complete by years end. I have had this basket case Williams Bros kit for a while that had a few bits missing.. I had to construct a prop hub assembly amongst other things. I love the shape of the Commando so I did it wheels up in flight. Choosing which paint livery to model took a few night's research and I settled on "Wanki" and designed and printed the decals for it...based on photos with only one view of the aircraft, it is probably not fully authentic but it looks the part and I find the beast quite attractive.

VADM Fangschleister Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 You've made a beautiful display piece. A very challenging and rewarding result. I love the look of that old bird. Still a few of them around but you did it justice, to be sure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
