3000 FREE Antonov An-2 Colt

[tigertony100]

Not all of us have, or, where appropriate, designed 3000 models. But Bruno Vanhecke has done it and to date he has even exceeded that number. I do not want to miss this opportunity to celebrate the 3,000 Bruno models. I waited until the last to see if someone with much more constructive ability did something of this. Only one costruction done: Rata's version of Cubana An-2 made by Papermate and in 1/160 scale, and the promise of building two from a fellow modeller from Eastern Europe. Something that I missed and expected is the recolor by CAFE, but he was very busy with their Mig-17 for what is understood. Well, here is my construction process and I'm going to bore you all this month with these little planes all badly built. Regards.Tony.

Look forward to the results - an interesting selection of colour schemes there.

Didn't know that Lufthansa flew the AN-2!

I think that's the Lufthansa from the mirror universe, behind the iron curtain, the one that was created in 1955 and transfered to Interflug in 1963 (itself created in 1958).

Also now I'm testing the An-2 model which Lfuente recolor, and for now it's ok, now it's time for small parts and finally a propeller

Six in one hit! Go for it and best of luck Tony. Looking forward to seeing these little beauties.

Anybody can do a perfect build but it takes some serious skills to build a kit with customized flaws... I am looking forward to your builds my friend.

Looking forward to seeing that, Pablito - I still don't have access to a good printer.

Thanks Carlos - never knew about that bit of history. Interesting indeed!

Lfuente watch my site on FB, soon after I finish doing AN-2 I will put a photo of the finished model
