SAU Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I'm in with a Curtiss P-6E Hawk. by SAU, auf Flickr No box or instructions but I guess it's a 60's or 70's release Decals from Starfighter Models for the 'Indian head' 94 Pursuit Squadron Quote Link to post Share on other sites
john53 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 (edited) Wow how cool can that be? They were also in use by China and the Netherlands, not sure about decals though. 1/72 scale? Good luck.---John Edited July 28, 2018 by john53 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RKic Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 ooooooooooooooh!!!! I love interwar biplanes! I'm very curious to see what you do with this one! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kurt H. Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Nice choice. I do not think I have ever seen one of these. It looks very simple, but appears to have nice detail. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 That should take around half an hour to build!!! Neat choice!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Don Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 3 minutes ago, phantom said: That should take around half an hour to build!!! For us mere mortals but for you Phantom it would be built, painted, decaled and on the shelf in 15 minutes LOL ! Seriously though this should be fun to watch. Good luck!

SAU Posted July 31, 2018 Author Share Posted July 31, 2018 Thanks all guys. I like those interwar planes. Half an hour build, well, that's just the normal time for me to open the box. In this case I saved some minutes there as it came in a plastic bag. Our local IPMS club had a whole day meeting this saturday and this is what I managed to build in 6 hours. A lot of talk and less workshop there (also three more projects on the table...) Like Kurt H said, a simple kit and I'll build it like Monogram intended 😉 by SAU, auf Flickr Pretty empty in the cockpit, just a socket for... by SAU, auf Flickr ...Peg Leg Joe, just anxious waiting for the lazy builder to finish by SAU, auf Flickr Quote Link to post Share on other sites
southwestforests Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Ahh, kits from the good old days. Even though it's kind of in your face obvious, I'm still going to comment on the yellow plastic that's probably visible from the next county over. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
admiralcag Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 My model club, the CoMMiES, does 4 hr meetings twice a month. We call them build and bulls. Lots of smack talk. Lots of wandering around to see what is being done. The club has several absolutely brilliant modelers. Lots of building going on. More clubs should do that. I built a P6E many, many years ago.
