1/72 Avro 504 k Turkish livery
Hello everybody!
I introduce You my last assembled model, an 1/72 Avro 504 K in Turkish Nationalist livery. The kit is a recolor of an Answer 1/33 kit and came very handy to accompany my previous Breguet XIV build: Wayne's Breguet XIV revisited
The kit appeared simple enough to be downscaled to 1/72, so I printed a copy in 90gr paper and went to assemble it. In the end it became my hardest challenge in paper modelling up to date, the small size 90gr paper pieces folded very well, but gave little structural strength, so any small amount of pressure threatened to crush the model.

Magnificent work!
Interesting plane and markings. "Turkish things" are not so common in paper models.

What a beautiful build in any scale. The 504 was a very delicate looking trainer. You have done a superb job at such a small size


Bravo

OMG. What a stunning model. Fantastic job on building in a relatively small scale. The undercarriage is a work of art in itself!

Regards, Garry G.

I guess most, if not all, of the superlatives have already been used. You have done superbly, to use a favorite word of Don Boose.
