My First Stahlhart Papercraft "Gladiator" 1:60

Messed around with this one long enough
The "Gloster Gladiator" @ 1:60

A little smaller than I'm use to. I wasted about 2 days trying to make a clear canopy. After 3 trys I gave up.

I left off some detail, gun pods, exhaust pipes, etc., and the rigging


I replaced the wheels with buttons. I couldn't roll the wing struts to my likeing so I replaced them with small wooden dowels.
Well it looks like the Gloster Gladiator, I Guess

Bob - nice build a a pretty aircraft.

I use toothpicks for struts as well. They increase the models playability with my seven year old
