Revell 1/32 Arado 196

[chief5437]

Done!

Sorry for the amount of pics!







































Bloody hell! I didn't realise there was that many! Some duplicates maybe?

Anyway... I really liked this kit, no problems other than the weird canopy. But I'm sure revell had their reasons for making it like ikea! Some nice detail in the cockpit, only let down by the really thick harnesses. Very nice engine too! And for £17 you just can't complain, well you shouldn't, but I'm going to complain about the white band decal, too thin, should've painted it! Lol

As ever, thanks for looking, and thanks for your interest during this build.

Have this waiting in my stash, Its a fine and highly detailed kit.

Very high class build mate! 1/32 really offers great detail to work with.
Quality in every part and detail, I take my hat off!
Congrats, thats a damn good looking Arado...just love the Engine.
And the Little extras with the planks and Tools adds a lot of scale feel and realism, nice touch.

Thanks for looking! I hope you enjoy building yours as much as I did. Most enjoyable build since my dragon panzer I. I've pointed out a couple of things to look for in the build thread, hope they'll be of some use to you.

Thanks again mate!

Cheers Tim! I'd recommend you get this kit. Really nice build, and at 1/32 it seems a bit easier to get to the details. I think you'd do a great job! Thanks again dude!

Thanks very much mate! There is a build log, of sorts, in the WIP section. Not a great deal in it, as the kit didn't really have any problems!

Thanks for looking dude!

Thank you Hamilkar! Very kind of you. I agree, it's an excellent kit at a great price. Highly recommended!

Superb piece of modelling.

[Drazimo]

Looks so amazing. It's the fine details that really stands out, without standing out if you know what I mean? The fine chipping really works, and I love how the paint work looks. And the tool box is very... cute.

The base is really cool too, dude you use lollipop sticks to get the effect? Or possibly coffee stirrers, although I'd imagine they'd be too small.
