Saro London: 3 Models, 3 Sizes

Many of you have seen my Supermarine Stranraer, published in ecardmodels.
When I was researching it, I found a picture of the plane identified BN-L from the 240th Sqn, that was a bit weird.
Looking better, I found that the plane was not a Stranraer, but a Saro London.
I found it so funny, that the picture went to my "to do" list.

And now the time has come to start to assemble the beta-test of this plane.
This beta test will be made in scale 1/72 and hand painted, but inmediately after finishing, there will be two more models made by friends of mine, one in scale 1/33 and the other in scale 1/100 ("Glue by Numbers" series)

An interesting detail is that the plane was reinforced with metalic stripes over all the fuselage. Mine will have this stripes, and the model is going to include the posibility of include them, too.

Another detail: the first model is going to be the prototype, with octogonal covers and two bladed propellers. The second, in similar silver finish, is going to have the exausts under the wing and four blades. And the third, the camouflaged BN-L, will have exausts over the wing and three bladed propellers.

So, as allways: Enjoy!
