Thanks.
The scale is about 1/50.
The legs still need a bit of fine tuning, but for a test build it is ok.

Excellent work Bruno. Very nice horses!
You opened an old wound with that Tu22 Blinder talk.....I am trying to see if I can transform vladimir's model to your standards but I am terribly short of time...

I 've been building the Calypso Catalina for the last 2 weeks....a piece every 2 nights....

It will be very nice when you will do it , now i am doing Vladimirs Tu 22 Blinder and i think it will be very nice to have Blinder and Blackfire .

Nice horses. The colored one looks so full of life!

[Vermin_King]

Those horses are great. Wouldn't have to be downsized much for use in RPG games. Need a test builder?

Tu-22 (all versions) are my favourite planes, too.... :-)

[chicharrero]

And for me.
Mainly Tu-22 Blinder.

I checked the shoulder height and it stands at a little over 1 inch or 2,6-2,7 cm.
checking the internet the horses of the British cavalry were 15.2 1/2 hands where a hand is 4 inches. So that would be about 155 cm. in scale 1/58 that would be 2,67 cm. Looks like it should be OK.

I'll try to get the fine tuning done this evening, at least for the two poses shown.

And now I'll pretend to ignore the pleas for the Tu-22

OK with me as long as the Be-10 is alive (or better dormant).

Are those horses Babieca, Marengo or Rocinante?

They look great.

Okay, sorry for interrupting, but I would like to share my edited version of Bruno's A350-900 XWB. The cockpit windows were edited. I found some 1/144 scale decals and vectorised them and scaled them to fit the model. I didn't edit anything else, since it was almost perfect!!! (This is the only A350 paper model available)

I have not tested them yet, but I hope they all fit together. Thanks Bruno for such a nice model!!!
