martin_sam_2000 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Here is my latest completed build. It is the Ibex 1/48 Ibex T-6II built as an RCAF Harvard II using the Caracal decals. Model was a little fun as it is for sure a short run kit with the usual issues they bring to the table, but the Caracal decals are amazing and I love how it turned out. Only real wrinkle is the canopy frame that is supposed to go in the middle was WAY to short so I just left it off. Enjoy: Thanks for looking, Sean Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AndrewPerren Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Lovely work. Glad to hear it didn't give too much trouble. Have the kit to do at some point once I get the courage to tackle a vacform canopy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Have the kit to do at some point once I get the courage to tackle a vacform canopy. That is the one point i was most worried about. Did some balsa when I was young but NEVER got good at vacuform. I got it as close as I could, but ended up gluing the canopy open to save me the trouble of trying to get a good seam. Also shows off those lovely instrument panels!!
