Good to see this one Karol. Liked this plane ever since Matchbox released it as a 1/72 plastic a long time ago. They flew in interesting camo schemes with the Condor Legion in Spain too.

Very nice, looking forward for the Condor Legion version, Rayo

The Condor Legion one might take a while. I don't have a lot of skill with camo, and there are a lot of parts to get it to line up across.

Thank you Aaron, very nice model indeed!

Very good looking and excellent craftsmanship and design.
Up to now, no where to find out what scale is it?

I printed model at 71% or original Aarons design and wingspan measures 12.5 inches.

Original plane had 47 Ft 7 in wingspan.

Can someone skilled in math calculate answer?

Approx 1/46 scale.

Very fine build Karol and very fine desing Aaron!

According to your measurements, Butelczynski, the model should be in the scale of about 1/33.

If you shrank the original templates to 71% and got a wingspan of 12.5 inches (the real thing got 47 ft 7 in = 571 inches) then the model you have just built is 1/46. Thus the original scale of the model as designed by Murph should be about 1/33.

Check if out, I may be wrong.
