Thank you Leon. It is a really small kit. I think it's smaller than most 1/48 scale fighters.

I was surprised by how small this plane is Leon. The model is smaller than most 1/48 scale WWII fighters.

I tell you guys, they look way better in person than they do in pictures. Alex is doing great work.

Looking good Alex! It's always amazing to me how much the racing circuits did to improve aviation in the '30s.

Hello everybody. After a few months of working on other things (like a Katyusha), I decided to get this little beast done. I got the base coat on over the weekend: This morning, I got the engine and cowling on. Now, I am just trying to get the guts up to mask the red and black.

Thanks Bill. It shouldn't be too bad. The instructions and box art have templates. It's just going to take a fair amount of time.
