Stahlhart Gloster Sea Gladiator

Well, for my 1st post I'll show my Stahlhart Sea Gladiator. She is only my 6th card model build (1 Ollie San Pablo and 4 FG aircraft).

All is as per instructions except the wheels, for those I cut 6 disks for each wheel out of 65# cardstock and laminated them together then used the kit hubs.

I tried to build the more detailed engine that came with the kit but couldn't do it, I think my problem was 65# card stock it was printed on. The Simpler engine disk looks fine but I would have liked to have the more detailed one, oh well, next time.

All in all it was a fun little plane to build, a few mistakes here and there (don't mind the wing struts) but she was a joy to build.

Many thanks to Christoph Stahl for the beautiful models he has provided us for free.

That is a great build!!!
I've down loaded the Gladiators, but just haven't gotten to them.
This is an inspiration.
Thank you for sharing!

Very fine build. The Gladiator was a great-looking airplane and you have done it justice.
