Berlin Airlift

[EasyEight96]

Hi guys just started this built just now.

Boxart


Decals


Manual


The sprues (very big)








Clear parts



This was a quite easy built but the mouldings is showing their age but not to bad
Here's the progress




I was too anxious to see how huge is this so I dry-fitted it



The scheme I'll be doing is this one can anyone kindly share some pics of it?? It will be much helpful for me


That's all for now I'll post more in days or weeks time cuz this wednesday is my big day that is my spm. For yur info this exam is very important exam as it will determine whether I can enter college and succeed in my future

Love the Dak....good luck with the build...always liked the idea of Berlin Airlift as a subject especially as there are loads of info and aircraft types that took part in this operation.

I have a soft spot for the DC-3...who knows, maybe Revell may do one in 1/32 scale...wouldn't be much larger than their HE111 but the scope for liveries would be immense!

Awesome, awesome entry. Something very different yet so iconic of the Cold War. Man that looks huge .

I wish you every success in your exam

I have a "feeling" that I have the Italeri C47 coming as a birthday present at the end of this month, if so then its nice to get an idea of how big its going to be!

Nice progress, I look forward to your next update.

Good choice, I like the colours on the box art - it looks like it'll be massive when it's built.

[EasyEight96]

Thanks guys. No updates this month as I'm still having exams till next Wednesday. I'll try to get back to it after finishing up the Halifax .
