The Duke Completes Three Aircraft in May

Post by Duke Maddog »

After all this time, I did manage to get a few aircraft done.

The first one is the old Italeri An-2 Colt in 1/72 scale...naturally:

This next one is an RS Models 1/72 scale DFS 230 German Glider of Ebon Emael fame:

Finally this last one the Special Hobby 1/72 scale Israeli Vatour fighter bomber:

That's all in aircraft for now, thank you for looking in, comments are welcome.

Imagine the wind trying to use that MG on that glider. :giggles:

Great builds all.

Nice work!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Three different and quite unique types! Very nice trio Mark! I love the Israeli twin and the DFS glider. Don’t forget those gliders also were used at Crete and the Gran Sasso Mussolini rescue raid. The Biplane is very cool too!
