One model per (non-working) day - Page 1445

And now, to thank all of you for your continuous patience with my ever changing topics and stubborn refusal to do requests, for the 3000th model in my list (at least the 1/100 scale list since I started counting):

a challenge for the community in the form of a FREE white version of a plane that saw around 18000 real ones build, with over 60 countries having used it, so many recolors possible,...

The Antonov An-2.

Please enjoy, build, recolor and share.

thanks... at least 3000 times.

Bruno

I might just be the first to congratulate you and express my thanks for your enormous contribution.

Thanks too for the An-2. It has been on my to-do list.

A fantastic mile stone and another marvel. Thanks for everything, Bruno.

Congratulations on hitting this mark.

And thanks for all the great models.

Thanks Bruno for An-2

Thank you so much Bruno for that An-2!

It's not only a milestone in your collection. That Antonov was a real milestone in aviation history! It's a DC-3 of the Cold War's "Red side".

Thank you Bruno for the Colt.

Hmmmm, Did you have any free models on floats?
I have an idea for kitbash

Thanks

First think if you want to enlarge or reduce.

To enlarge you need a bigger number than 1 or 100%

To reduce you need a smaller number than 1 or 100%

In the case of Mike, he wants to reduce:

which one is smaller 300/100 or 100/300?

yes, 100/300 or 1/3 or 0.3333 or 33.33% but more likely his ability to reduce will be 33%.

In the case of Juan201, he wants to enlarge:

which one is larger 300/100 or 100/300?

well, 300/100 or 3/1 or 3 or 300% but he wants to fit it in an A4 or a letter format, he needs to splice the model, or as Jack the Ripper used to say: by pices.

In my case 1/300 to 1/400 or 1/100 to 1/400, I want to reduce.

in the first case 300/400 or 75% reduction
In the second case 100/400 or 25% reduction (BTW this is about the limit, in a few cases, if the model is very very very simple you can go from 1/50 to 1/400).
