Congratulations Bruno!!!

Why limit yourself to just one thousand more?
Lets put the target at 5000 with a few 500 benchmarks in between.

After all, once all the plane models are done, you can proceed with science fiction, sea and land ... ;-)

Great work, my friend, and a great achievement too.
Now seriously, don't you think guys that this could be a Book of Guiness record???

Dear Bruno:
Your #2 Hs 123, could easily became your #1001 Hs 123 Condor Legion, which could be the Scheherezade model.
happy designing and recoloring.
Pablo

Wow Bruno,
That's quite an accomplishment, and thanks for sharing so many great models with us.
Now on to the next 1,000

can I just use the 787 engines on the old 747-SCA wings? do I have to modify something to make them fit in?

do you know if the 787 engine support are compatible with 747 wings?

Thanks everyone.

I started a new model to celebrate the 1000-mark. It's a rather complex machine with unusual shapes and lots of struts (48 if I count correctly). It will be more than twice as large as it is long. The fuselage itself exists in two different forms depending on the plane you want to represent, a flat one and one with an higher roof. This will definitely require a test-build. The engines alone have 26 pieces each. It will be a festival for riggers.
What could it be, I wonder...

Designing in the evening after work it will take more than one day. So grant me a little time.

@Theberto,
sorry for not intervening in your discussion. I don't have all the answers to your questions and I'm too focused on the 1/100 scale models of a completely different period.

Hi Bruno,
Sorry it`s taken so long, but here is the first of your models converted to a flying (rubber powered) version

I`ve done a repaint and scaled it up to 13 inch wing span...( we call this Peanut scale)
She has a peck polymers plastic prop (borrowed from a previous Fury Peanut)
And is built using Tissue paper mounted on to 2mm polystyrene foam.
The wheels are turned balsa, All struts are balsa wrapped in paper....
I have done a test glide across my room, she looks to be a very promising flyer

Cheers
Lee
