Alcides is a wondeful project.
Now I show the next models I put in the workbench... |

After a while without posting anything we will go to some updates in the construction of two more models of Aaron for the collection. This time it's the Antarctic R4Y (Condor II), this version is a little different from the previous plane that I showed here since it has other engines and in this case it is equipped with snow skis instead of wheels. The other model is one of the repaints of the Trojan competition that Aaron made a few years ago. I don't remember who did this repainting, but I suspect that he adapted a flight simulator skin, in any case it is very interesting with the colors of South Vietnam.
As in the case of the other Condor, it is extremely important to start with the nose, either for the delicacy of the nose set, or for the fact that the construction serves as a guide to form the other segments of the fuselage that has a "fish" shape. The T-28, on the other hand, is a much simpler model, with the fuselage with a circular cross section, I painted the canopy in bluish gray because I found the gray of the original texture very faint. Updates soon! |

Well my friends!
Another finished model (of the intermediaries between the Condor buildings), this time it was the T-28 Trojan, one of the versions of the contest repainting package that Aaron promoted a few years ago. It is a relatively simple model to build, the air inlets on the nose and the wing fillets demand a lot of attention, as does the construction of the canopy. It is not one of my best constructions, but I was satisfied with the results. Until the next... |

Very nice Trojan.That is one beautiful plane to see up close on an air show.

It brings back memories to see that VNAF T-28. It was mostly VNAF A-1s that provided us with close air support, but I did see the occasional T-28 in similar markings in 1966-67.
Great work, as always. Don |

Great-looking Trojan, Pericles.
It's nice to see it in camo and markings of South Vietnam Air Force.

You can see the real T-28 in these markings. It's in the airpark at Hurlburt Field Air Base, just outside Fort Walton Beach, Florida. Home of Air Force Special Operations. It's where many T-28 aircrews were trained during the Viet Nam war.
